Excel Fundraising Inc. abides by the Association of Fundraising Professionals recommended Code of Ethical Standards, which states that members shall:
- not accept compensation or enter into a contract that is based on a percentage of contributions; nor shall members accept finder’s fees or contingent fees.
- be permitted to accept performance-based compensation, such as bonuses, only if such bonuses are in accord with prevailing practices within the members’ own organizations and are not based on a percentage of contributions.
Organizations wanting to implement a performance-based compensation model can enlist our help in Driving Fundraising Performance.
