Week 11 Discussion: Ethical Issues in Donor Prospecting, Identification and Research

Please identify three ethical issues that may emerge as a development professional researches and selects prospective donors for his or her organization.

Important note: These are issues specifically related to the process of identifying, researching, and/or qualifying a prospective donor (and not general ethical issues related to nonprofits or raising funds). T

Be sure to thoroughly review and reference APRA: https://www.aprahome.org/Links to an external site.

Look for professional donor prospecting resources, such as APRA, to assist your research.

Please address:

  • What potential ethical issues could occur?
  • What steps should a professional take to prevent these ethical breaches?
  • What measures should an organization take to address donor research transgressions that occur?
  • What additional issues should the fundraiser consider?

Please write an essay of at least 350 words (not including references), using APA Style.

Please cite APRA, at least two new references, and Week 3 course readings that apply to selecting and evaluating potential givers.

Please provide substantive responses to at least two peers.

Please craft content accordingly. Be mindful of spelling, grammar, in-text citations, references and APA style. 

HELPFUL HINTS

Please read the instructions and follow them carefully. This assignment concerns donor prospecting, identification and research, rather than the general ethics that apply to nonprofit organizations.
