We believe that a commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion leads to a culture whereby people will collaborate, innovate, and deliver results in a meaningful way. In fundraising, we must be:

• Authentic with our community members when asking them to be involved with fundraising efforts.

• Thoughtful of the impact on our community members when we ask them to share their stories for fundraising purposes.

• Thoughtful about what images we use in order to avoid reinforcing existing archetypes and stereotypes.

Because we believe that exceptional communication is key to a positive working relationship, we will work to:

Establish and maintain a trusting and honest relationship with you.

Commit to mutually established goals.

Plan for results collaboratively.

Provide ongoing, accessible support.

Assess the relationship with you by asking for and offering feedback as needed.

Celebrate our accomplishments.
