OBTAINING INFORMATION

Cultivating additional individuals to join in the support of the Boots to Boardroom Foundation is critical to the long-term success of the organization.

DONOR BILL OF RIGHTS

Philanthropy is based on voluntary action for the common good. It is a tradition of giving and sharing that is essential to community quality of life. To ensure that philanthropy merits the respect and trust of the general public, and that donors and prospective donors can have full confidence in the nonprofit organizations and causes they are asked to support, Boots to Boardroom Foundation declares that all donors have these rights, modeled after the Association of Fundraising Professionals’ Donor Bill of Rights:

I. 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 intended purposes.
II. To be informed of the identity of those serving on the organization’s Board of Directors and to expect the Board to exercise prudent judgment in its stewardship responsibilities.
III. To have access to, upon request, the organization’s three most recent audited financial statements and IRS Statements 990, the organization’s nonprofit IRS 501(c)(3) determination letter, and any other documents as set forth in the IRS’s guidelines (IRC 6104) regarding contents of nonprofit organizations’ public inspection files.
IV. To be assured their gifts will be used for the purposes for which they were given.
V. To receive appropriate acknowledgement and recognition. Boots to Boardroom's Foundation policy is that all cash and in-kind gifts with values over $5 are acknowledged in writing, with a letter usable for tax purposes.
VI. To be assured that information about their donation is handled with respect and with confidentiality to the extent provided by law.
VII. To expect that all relationships with individuals representing organizations of interest to the donor will be professional in nature.
VIII. To be informed whether those seeking donations are volunteers, employees of the organization, or hired solicitors.
IX. To have the opportunity for their names to be deleted from mailing lists that an organization may intend to share.
X. To feel free to ask questions when making a donation and to receive prompt, truthful, and forthright answers. These policies are subject to change, with or without notice, by a vote of Boots to Boardroom Foundation's Board of Directors.
