All donations are received by our Fundraising Department and assessed according to our Ethical Donation Policy. Each donation undergoes an investigation, including donor background and donation history, with more extensive checks for larger donations.
Criteria for Acceptance of Donations: Donations must align with our mission, values, and legal standards. Legal counsel may be consulted for certain types of gifts. Donations that conflict with our mission, pose reputational risks, or have legal or ethical concerns which jeopardise the independence of the Fund may be rejected.
Handling of Donations: Donations are carefully documented and used to support our activities. Transparent communication about received donations and their impact is a priority. Reasons for refusal are communicated clearly to donors when appropriate.
Roles of Supervisory Board and Executive Director: The Supervisory Board oversees and approves this policy, with any revisions approved by the Director. The Executive Director ensures the policy's implementation and effective management of donations.
Final Provisions: This policy is effective upon approval by the Board of Directors. The Fund reserves the right to revise the policy with Board approval. Our policy is drafted in accordance with laws, emphasizing transparency, integrity, and accountability.
