The Donor Bill of Rights
The Association for Fundraising Professionals is an excellent resource for all aspects of fundraising. Use this link to their website to read excellent articles, find practical resources, and participate in conferences and seminars.
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 not-for-profit organizations and causes they are asked to support, we declare that all donors have the following rights.
