Guidance for fundraising platforms: 5 focus areas for donor transparency
The Fundraising Regulator analysed information provided to donors across eighteen well-known platforms. This guidance represents the minimum standard of information we would expect to see for donors to be able to make an informed decision to donate.
We investigate complaints about fundraising where these cannot be resolved by the organisations themselves.
