At our upcoming charity conference on June 12th, we will hear about charity accountability programs in other countries such as Germany and Taiwan and learn how cultural differences might influence donor trust in charities and fundraising strategies. It will be a surprise to some that many of the same trust challenges faced in the U.S. are also experienced around the world.
The panel discussion on this global subject will be moderated by Lindsey Coates, Executive Vice President of InterAction, an alliance of 180 organizations engaged in such areas as international or domestic relief and development.
Panelists are:
