ethics
Comedian Robin Williams’ definition of ethics is “what’s right is what’s left if you do everything wrong." The bottom line is that if your agency is not ethical nor perceived to be ethical, who will want to volunteer? Who will want to be associated with it? Who will want to work there? Who will donate money? Being ethical is as easy as what is right and what is wrong. In this section you will find resources that will guide your organization to the highest moral conduct.
