Preamble
The Board of Directors first began making humanitarian donations in late 2020 during the peak of the COVID 19 pandemic, in response to unexpected in-year surpluses, and the desire to put those cost savings to good use.
The Board of Directors has since maintained its humanitarian donations practice.
Policy Statement
AMAPCEO members have been supportive of the Union’s commitment to using its collective privilege to ensure basic human rights such as food and shelter for those in need within the communities in which AMAPCEO members live and work.
In 2023, the Board of Directors made a commitment to incorporating a humanitarian donations budget line into AMAPCEO’s Operating Budget, on a go forward basis, subject to financial capabilities.
The Board of Directors will give consideration to potential recipients and corresponding donation amounts in the 4th Quarter of the year.
Approved donations will be communicated to the membership on an annual basis.
Point of Clarity
This statement and its practices stand separate of similar financial policies.
