More of Your Dollars Directly Support JARC Services

A March 2013 article in Crain’s Detroit Business highlighted the cost of fundraising for Michigan nonprofit organizations, reporting that “charities receive on average only 35 cents of every dollar raised through contracted professional fundraisers that solicit in Michigan,” according to Michigan Attorney General Bill Schuette. A March 7 press release from the Attorney General’s office quoted the Better Business Bureau’s Standard for Charity Accountability, stating that charities should “spend no more than 35% of related contributions on fundraising. Related contributions include donations, legacies, and other gifts received as a result of fund raising efforts.” According to the release, Michigan law prohibits charities from “falsely telling donors that 90% of their donations go to the charity, when that is in fact not true.”
