Does your charity treasure your past records for the wisdom and insights they provide? Or, are you on a chaotic hamster wheel of data entry, spending your time merging and purging multiple lists of donors? Sharron Batsch encourages you to think different about your organizational records and advance the change required to think about data and internal processes differently.
When you run a charity, you have a lot of responsibility. You are responsible to your staff, your beneficiaries, your donors and, perhaps at times the most challenging, the Canadian Government. You worked hard to get your charitable status and sometimes harder to keep it. In part two of this three part series Mark Blumberg will explain, in simple language, what the top charity law compliance issues are and how you can be sure to keep your charitable status.
Your organization has secured charitable status and you are issuing receipts for donations. Have you stopped to ensure that all the information required by the Canada Revenue Agency is included on your tax receipts? In this article Linsey E.C. Rains shares a case where non-compliant tax receipting caused serious problems for one donor.
