Presented by Alice L. Ferris, MBA, CFRE, ACFRE, and James Anderson, CFRE
Black. White. Right. Wrong. It's easy to tell the difference, correct? The longer you are in the nonprofit sector, however, the “greyer” issues become. So how can you apply an ethical decision making to challenging and ever changing issues in fundraising and the nonprofit sector? We will discuss real world situations around accountability, public trust, and fundraising ethics.
