To ensure that donors can reasonably expect nonprofit organizations they are asked to support to protect their privacy, we will endeavor to help them:

• 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.
  
  
• 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.
  
  
• Have access to the organization’s most recent financial statements.
  
  
• Be assured their gifts will be used for the purposes for which they were given.
  
  
• Receive appropriate acknowledgement and recognition.
  
  
• Be assured that information about their donation is handled with respect and confidentiality.
  
  
• Be assured that their contact information will not be shared.
  
  
• Feel free to ask questions when making a donation and to receive prompt, truthful and forthright answers.
