Join us for this 90-minute interactive nonprofit webinar where we will show you step-by-step how to ensure your organization maintains the highest ethical standards in your fundraising operations. 

At the end of the fundraising training, you will have the knowledge and the tools to implement the highest ethical standards in your fundraising operations. 

In order to financially support your organization, donors must trust you. Ethical fundraising is imperative to maintaining both our donors’ and the public’s trust.

Using the Association of Fundraising Professionals’ Code of Ethical Conduct, the Donor Bill of Rights, and the Standards for Excellence® as our guides, we will explore the trickiest issues in fundraising ethics and have the opportunity to apply a variety of ethical decision-making models to case studies. By the end of this course, you will have the fundraising skills necessary to excel!
