1. Public Relations & Non-Profit Organizations

Public relation is the face of any organization whether it is for profits making or a non-profit making organization. Public relation shapes the organization to what it is expected to be and for this reason, public relation is very important to any organization (Bowen, Rawlins & Martin, 2010). Non-profit organizations are also supposed to have a strong public relation because it assists the organization in very many ways. Taking for example the American Red Cross, it cannot exist on its own since it needs quite a number of facilities that will enable it to perform.

Public relation in this case helps the American ...

- Does the organization that you chose in the Db above have any Charitable lead trusts or charitable remainder trusts?

A charitable lead trust is where a trust will donate to a charity a given amount in order to lower taxes on the trusts’ beneficiaries and then donate further after a specified amount of time. The American Diabetes Association has a Charitable Lead Trust from the Trust of Abby R. Mauze between the amount of $250,000 and $499,999. A Charitable remainder Trust is similar but first dispenses th trust to its beneficiaries and then after a specified amount of time donates the remainder of the trust to a charity. While the American Diabetes Association encourages Charitable Remainder Trusts they have not received any recently.

- Define and outline these two trusts.

Financial Accounting

It is very important for any business to insure that the financial statements of the business are produced timely and must be reliable. It is assumed in the financial markets that if the financial statements are prepared on the basis of accounting standards and the financial statements are approved by the auditor, then, the financial statements are reliable. The reliable financial statements are the most important element, for the management and the current shareholders. If the statements are reliable and authorized by the auditor, then, it is highly probable that the current shareholder will reinvest into the business. (Lempert, ...

Introduction

Peter Singer in his article “Famine, Affluence and Morality” gives a seemingly devastating critic on our ordinary way of thinking about famine, relief, charity, and morality in general. Despite his arguments, only a few people have accepted, or rather responded on the conclusions he derives. In line with these facts one might say of Singer’s arguments, as Hume claimed of Berkeley’s arguments on immaterialism, the “they admit of no answer and produce no conviction” (Hume, 1999). While my view on considerations presented by Singer shows that people should actually do more than other people do, they do ...

Engineers Beyond Borders-Canada (EBB-Canada) was started by Parker Mitchell and George Roter, two engineering graduates from the University of Waterloo in the late 1990s. The non-profit organization partners with communities worldwide to improve their quality of life through the design and implementation of sustainable engineering projects. The organization also trains engineers to be responsible and responsive to the needs of the people in their communities. In line with this, the organization has established chapters in various Canadian Universities. EBB-Canada runs independently though it collaborates with Engineers Beyond Borders International (EBB-International) whose main role is to coordinate and oversee the ...

In the United States, health organizations are organized to the promotion of patient care and conducting scientific research. They include both profit and non-profit health organizations. For-profit health organizations, they offer profitable medical services to the community. The notable example is Becker healthcare in United States.

In the profit health organization system, general hospitals are not compelled to provide a standard range of services. However, most of the profit hospitals specialize in their services. For instance, the method the hospitals adopt and the degree to which ...

Introduction

Saint Thomas Aquinas is one of the people accredited for having brought theology into the limelight. However, though theology existed long before the emergence of philosophers and fathers if the church, individualistic drives such as those of Aquinas brought a deeper understanding into the mysteries of theology. Modern day theology would not have gotten any bearing without the impact of philosophers and scholars who simplified the understanding of theological concepts. While it cannot be independently verified what the motivation was behind the interest in theology, it is clear that theology is what it is because of the input of the ...

Theoretically speaking, the term 'stakeholders' refers to "any group or individual who can affect or is affected by the achievement of organizations objectives" (Freeman, 2010). It is obvious to expect the differences in stakeholders expectations for a profit business to that of non-profit organizations. The biggest difference is the monetary expectation. As non-profit organizations don't make monetary benefits from their operations, stakeholders cannot expect financial benefits. The goals of these firms are, usually, providing a charitable and educational service. As such, stakeholders including funders, volunteers, participants, clients and government officials may have different expectations ranging from providing quality service to ...

Introduction

Human life is guided by principles, thoughts and considerations, which determine what activities, are right or wrong to undertake in any situation. The ability to reason and act out of a set of determined principles differentiates humans from animals. All activities conducted by humans, therefore find their basis in some ethic that makes them acceptable or not. Humanitarian effort finds its foundation in the willingness by other people to sacrifice some of their resources for the improvement of someone else’s life. The decision to participate in a humanitarian effort is voluntary and not guided by formal laws. Additionally, the choice ...

According to Mendel (653), the phenomenon of homelessness in a affluent society and actions of business leaders in Cleveland to address it provides the starting point of Daniel Kerr’s Homelessness and Urban Development in Cleveland, Ohio.

Molinari et al. (487) and Mendel (653) agree that the homelessness is prevalent in United States and triggers challenge for veterans ...

The observation is a study of altruistic behavior of adults toward strangers. One goal in the study is to determine if the presence of an audience motivates a person to be charitable. Hudson and Bruckman (2004) theorized an individual of a particular personality will respond more to the opportunity to participate in a charitable contribution if others are aware of the donation. This may be evidenced in a donation when the plate is passed n church when a person feels others are watching. Some religious organizations include an envelope to conceal the amount of the donation. In this way, the individual is acknowledged as donating ...

Measurement of social value remains a challenge over the last number of decades among governments and individuals of different spheres in the globe. Social value creation arises from non-governmental organizations, social ventures and social enterprises among other social activities (Williams 23). These non-profit organizations aim at concentrating their efforts and resources towards their beneficiaries. Like the profit making organizations, accounting for resources and takes a considerable role to ensure achievement of such organization’s objectives. Therefore, social value on the larger concept includes social capital and the subjective aspects of individual citizen’s well-being in the nation. These aspects stem from ...

Charity organizations have an array of responsibilities that they should execute in order to ensure there is sustainability in the society.

Therefore, in this paper I will analyze the Makkah Charity Assembly to identify its feasibility; hence, make recommendations to my organization that wishes to sponsor the assembly.

Introduction

Non-profit hybrid organization is such an interesting topic since it is a fresh academic matter. The concept of such organization goes beyond the boundaries of profits and voluntarism has been recorded in the literature just recently. Non-profit organizations, which are also called “not-for-profit organizations,” are entities founded to benefit a specific issue or endeavor (p. 1). There are more than 1.4 million non-profit organizations that operate around the world and thousands of new non-profit organizations are established daily (p. 1). Unlike business enterprises, non-profit organizations do not function to generate income. They also do not share the earnings to the organization's ...

Every religion advocates philanthropy and looks at it as an essential aspect for the welfare of mankind. Islam is no exception and we find that Islamic rulings make charity obligatory. The western world does not associate the philanthropy with Islam and rather look at the Muslim community as propagators of violence and terrorism. The West looks at Islam as authoritarian and domination of women. Their unawareness of the Quran and the conducts of the Prophet keep them away from the reality that Islam is all about compassion, mercy and generosity. It is perhaps the irresponsible attitude of certain Muslims ...

Following the goal of one of the courses I study, which required students to be pushed out of the comfort zone and choose places where they would be entirely uncomfortable, my selection was to visit the mosque. This is a choice I thought was better because I being a Christian was interested in knowing much about other religion and how they conduct their holy activities in the holy places. This would give me a new experience apart from the normal life of Christianity and the general church experience. This event was scheduled to take place in one of the mosques in New ...

Questions and Answers on Famine, Affluence and Morality by Peter Singer

Famine, Affluence and Morality is an exposition of Peter Singer on utilitarianism containing his goal to establish that it is immoral not to use disposable wealth to reduce the suffering of a person, provided such usage would not cause harm to anyone. Singer emphasized that poverty has blighted the lives of many people in the world, with the solution lying within the ability of relatively wealthier people to do so. Therefore, a person commits a moral act when he uses his resources freely and without any prejudice to other people to alleviate the suffering of a person. For instance, a person could commit a moral ...

Kant explains that there are three motivations for human beings to extend actions of good will to others. First of all, Kant argues that the first motivation for action of good will is the idea of duty. There are people who believe that they have a responsibility to society of extending good will to members of those societies (Chafee 287).These people do not extend goodwill with the aim of obtaining anything from it. These people do not have interior motives for their actions. A good example is the case of the military giving up their lives to protect their ...

Voltaire employs satire in his works Candide. Indeed, he takes the opportunity to show his disdain for the societal norms that dominate his times.

Although the modern United States is known as a secular society with separation of church and state, the role of faith and churches remains strong within its citizens. That the role of the church remains strong with society would likely surprise late 19th century philosophers such as Friedrich Nietzsche, who seemed to believe Christianity would disappear altogether in favor of the newer developments and explanations provided by science and philosophy. Throughout the 20th century and ever since, the secular nation of America has produced millions of astounding innovations, vast scientific progress, and advances in civil rights. It has been over a century since ...

Non-profit organizations are particularly important in the community. Contrary to common misconceptions, nonprofit organizations play a role similar to that played by profit-driven organizations. A valid example of such an organization is the Adventist Development and Relief Agency (ADRA), which operates in South American countries that are prone to drug and human trafficking and abuse. Looking at it from a social perspective, non-profit organizations have a heavier impact on the society compared to for-profit organization. The non-profit organizations have been around long enough and the effects on the community are rather clear. The most prominent effect of nonprofit organizations on the community ...

Singer’s Goal and Argument The goal of Peter Singer in his article Famine, Affluence and Morality centers on the use of utilitarianism, but in an approach that tackles the implications of doing a morally just act through committing an act that is not morally good in itself.

In order to provide a solution to those problems, it is important for a person to do something about it. If the person possesses the ability to prevent a bad ...

Question 1 Given the short duration of a semester the student could most easily go along with aNPO executive on several fund development calls Non-profit organizations are not static bodies but they must move in a fluid constellation that will help the organization to shift its shape and remain focused when the situations demand and it must remain in line with the set goals and visions. The NPO executive ensures that there are adequate funds that will help the non-profit organization to achieve its mission and vision as stated by the organization. This will therefore present the need for ...

Leo Durocher, the former baseball manager was known for his fierce competitiveness, as well as his hair-trigger temper. Many of his teams were winners, and because of his managerial success, Durocher drew attention when he spoke, usually loudly. In fact, his nickname was “Leo the Lip.” It was Durocher who is known for coining the phrase “Nice Guys Finish Last,” a direct reference to the idea that the managers or players who failed to share his fiery spirit were doomed to lose to his team. However, in the 75 years since “Leo the Lip” was credited with this ...

Charity is a voluntary help that can be provided to the poor in the form of moral help or money. We know that charity can be given either directly, or through a charitable trust. Every charitable trust has some administration cost associated with it, and I am always skeptical if these administration costs are really worth paying for? But I do agree that these trusts need the administration costs to run their trust. I strongly believe that charity can be given to any poor person on any day, rather than waiting for the Thanksgiving or the Christmas holidays to arrive. I ...
