Are You Doing Enough to Protect Your Donors?
You have a responsibility to protect your donor’s information. Are you doing enough? This session will explore your ethical and practical obligations in protecting confidential information. We will discuss best practices and the questions you should be asking to make sure that your organization has policies and practices that will not leave you vulnerable to the release of confidential information. Your donors’ trust is an important asset and you will want to attend this interactive program to review your organization’s practices and to see what you might be able to do better.
