We are once again honored to have been announced as finalists in two categories in the ThinkAdvisor Luminaries Awards 2026! Now in its sixth year, ThinkAdvisor’s Luminaries Awards redefine excellence in financial services, shining a spotlight on outstanding contributions from both organizations and individuals.
Congratulations to our CEO Joe Mrak who was named a finalist for C-Suite Leader of the Year in the Technology Platforms – Financial Planning category! This nomination recognizes Joe’s continued leadership and his commitment to using technology to empower philanthropy and financial planning. Under Joe’s leadership, Foundation Source has continued to expand its philanthropic solutions capabilities and technology, building on the momentum from last year’s recognition.
But Wait There’s More…
In the Technology Platforms – Operations category, Foundation Source is also a finalist for Thought Leadership and Education. This nomination recognizes our ongoing commitment to educating advisors and the broader industry on the tools and strategies that make charitable giving more effective and accessible.
These nominations are a testament to the consistency, innovation, and dedication that drive the Foundation Source team. Being recognized in these categories demonstrates our commitment to supporting philanthropy through technology — and empowering advisors with the education and solutions they need.
“The 2026 Luminaries Awards continue to push the boundaries of what excellence and achievement mean in the financial services industry,” said Janet Levaux, editor-in-chief of ThinkAdvisor. “This year’s finalists demonstrate incredible leadership and innovation, while at the same time making a positive impact on their communities and the industry at large.
