Book Description
So long as large segments of humanity are suffering chronic poverty and are dying from treatable diseases, organized giving can save or enhance millions of lives. With the law providing little guidance, ethics has a crucial role to play in ensuring that the philanthropic practices of individuals, foundations, NGOs, governments, and international agencies are morally sound and effective. In Giving Well: The Ethics of Philanthropy, an accomplished trio of editors bring together an international group of distinguished philosophers, social scientists, lawyers and practitioners to identify and address the most urgent moral questions arising today in the practice of philanthropy. The topics discussed include the psychology of giving, the reasons for and against a duty to give, the accountability of NGOs and foundations, the questionable marketing practices of some NGOs, the moral priorities that should inform NGO decisions about how to target and design their projects, the good and bad effects of aid, and the charitable tax deduction along with the water's edge policy now limiting its reach. This ground-breaking volume can help bring our practice of charity closer to meeting the vital needs of the millions worldwide who depend on voluntary contributions for their very lives.

Book Description
The 1998 Data Protection Act has had far-reaching implications for voluntary organizations which hold personal data on computer or on paper. The second edition of this practical guide has been revised and updated following the implementation of the Act to include more examples, model policies and statements, and decision-making flow charts, as well as authoritative answers to key questions, and a comprehensive index. It sets out clearly: what managers need to do in order to comply; who and what the Act applies to; when you need consent from the people whose data you hold; the rights of individuals as data subjects; the responsibilities of voluntary organizations; what managers need to do in order to stay within the law; and how to incorporate Data Protection into your policies and procedures.
