Join us for a Lunch & Learn with development expert Eric Heininger, president of Eden+, as we explore ethical dilemmas in fundraising.
Naughty donors, dirty money, politicians, tragedies, and things that just make you go, "Ick". This session walks through several real case studies about the grey areas of fundraising and what you & your organization can do to navigate or eliminate the ad hoc decisions being made about engaging volunteers, accepting donations, and mission creep. A Q&A segment will follow this live program.
