I. Introduction The Importance of Nonprofit Transparency The Leading Business Publication For Nonprofit Management JULY 14, 2014 BRUCE BURTCH The times, they seem to be a-changing for corporate social responsibility campaigns. According to the 2013 Cone Communications/Echo Global CSR Study, a whopping 87 percent of the more than 10,000 respondents said that they make purchases based on what they know about an organization’s social, environmental and cause-related engagement. The remaining 13 were predominantly older than 55. The Old Guard is fading out, and the New Guard wants to know what your organization is doing. They’re even willing to say “it’s okay if a company is not perfect, as long as it is honest about its efforts.” It’s interesting to see that most of these consumers don’t believe that they’re getting as much truth and transparency as they should be from corporations. In fact, Cone reports that 91 percent of Americans believe organizations should tell them how they are supporting causes, but many do not think they are getting sufficient information. Only 58 percent of Americans believe companies are providing enough details about their cause efforts. Along with the rapid growth and success of cross-sector partnerships, there is an increasingly savvy and information-hungry public. It means that a mere lack of transparency can now cause suspicion or even damage to an organization’s image. The public wants to engage in causes they care about. Companies do, too, albeit for slightly different reasons. Neither wants to be involved in a campaign that has something to hide. That’s why the transparency of your cross-sector partnership is crucial. Page 19 of 147
