Donor Bill of
Rights
The Donor Bill of Rights was created by
the American Association of Fund Raising Counsel (AAFRC), Association
for Healthcare Philanthropy (AHP), the Association of Fundraising
Professionals (AFP), and the Council for Advancement and Support of
Education (CASE). It has been endorsed by numerous organizations.
Philanthropy is based on voluntary action
for the common good. It is a tradition of giving and sharing that is
primary to the quality of life. To ensure that philanthropy merits the
respect and trust of the general public, and that donors and prospective
donors can have full confidence in the nonprofit organizations and
causes they are asked to support, we declare that all donors have these
rights:
I.
To be informed of the organization's mission, of the way the
organization intends to use donated resources, and of its capacity
to use donations effectively for their intended purposes.
II.
To be informed of the identity of those serving on the
organization's governing board, and to expect the board to exercise
prudent judgment in its stewardship responsibilities.
III.
To have access to the organization's
most recent financial statements.
IV.
To be assured their gifts will be used for the purposes for which
they were given.
V.
To receive appropriate
acknowledgement and recognition.
VI.
To be assured that information about
their donation is handled with respect and with confidentiality to
the extent provided by law.
VII.
To expect that all relationships with individuals representing
organizations of interest to the donor will be professional in
nature.
VIII.
To be informed whether those seeking
donations are volunteers, employees of the organization or hired
solicitors.
IX.
To have the opportunity for their names to be deleted from mailing
lists that an organization may intend to share.
X.
To feel free to ask questions when making a donation and to receive
prompt, truthful and forthright answers.
Boys Hope Girls Hope is a not-for-profit 501(c)(3) organization, so
all contributions are tax deductible. |
