Donor Bill of Rights
Commitment
Strengthens our health care
Trillium Health Centre Foundation is committed to you –
our donor, a promise that is reflected in our Donor Bill of
Rights.
Donor Bill of Rights
To assure that donors and prospective donors can have confidence
in the not-for-profit organizations and causes they are asked
to support, we declare that all donors have these rights:
- To 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.
- To be informed of the identity of those serving on the
organization’s governing board, and to expect the
board to exercise prudent judgement in its stewardship
responsibilities.
- To have access to the organization’s most recent
financial statements
- To be assured their gifts will be used for the purpose
for which they were given.
- To receive appropriate acknowledgement and recognition.
- To be assured that information about their donations is
handled with respect and with confidentiality to the extent
provided by law.
- To expect that all relationships with individuals representing
organizations of interest to the donor will be professional
in nature.
- To be informed whether those seeking donations are volunteers,
employees of the organization or hired solicitors.
- To have the opportunity for their names to be deleted
from mailing lists that an organization may intend to share.
- To feel free to ask questions when making a donation
and to receive prompt, truthful and forthright answers.
Through the years, our donors have come together in support
of their community health centre for which we are truly grateful.
Trillium Health Centre … the heart of our community.
