The Role Policies Play in a Culture of Philanthropy - Resource Center - AFP

The Role Policies Play in a Culture of Philanthropy - Resource Center - AFP: Policies contribute to that culture by helping to create a respectful and transparent relationship between people in your organization and donors. It’s a misconception that policies constrain. In fact, when they are well-written and widely communicated, they can actually make it easier for you to raise funds.

When your board of directors has had the chance to think about fundraising policies, they have a greater understanding of what philanthropy is and how it fits your organization. By adopting policies on fundraising, they proclaim their commitment to a respectful and ethical approach to donors.
