Principos rectores por escenarios de recaudación de fondos
- Coherencia con la misión, visión y valores. Todos las actividades de recaudación de fondos tienen que ser llevados en un manera que es coherente con nuestro ensmble, nuestra visión y nuestros valores. No tienen que creer exposición legal innecesaria por los proyectos, o aparte de eso entrometerse excesivamente con nuestra abilidad a llevar nuestra misión a cabo.
- Coste minimal y perturbación minimal. Todas las actividades de recaudación de fondos tienen que tener por un objectivo de llevar la cantidad máxima posible de donores mientras que minizando costes administrativos todo lo posible (para reserver la cantidad más grande posible por actividad programatica), y causando perturbación y molestia minimal por usuarios de los proyectos.
- Transparency: All Wikimedia fundraising activities must be truthful with prospective donors. We need to tell people what we intend to use their money for, before they donate. And we need to report in a timely fashion on how it was actually spent.
- Responsibility: All Wikimedia fundraising activities must ensure funds received are safe from fraud or misuse as determined by existing third-party standards for appropriate financial controls, and must adhere to relevant laws and regulations.
- Internationalism: Our movement is international in scope, and our fundraising practices must support the easiest possible transfer of money internationally in support of the movement's priorities.
- Independence: We prefer a fundraising model in which we are supported primarily via the many-small-donors model, because this is the model that best supports our independence.
- Flexibility: We do not need to adhere to a single monolithic model for fundraising: multiple donation streams are fine.
- Sustainable donor relations: We must safeguard donor privacy and avoid slowing the "donate now" flow.
- Good faith: The Wikimedia movement assumes that all movement participants are acting in good faith, with regards to each other's actions and intentions.
Guidelines for Funds Distribution Scenarios
- Protect the core: Core activities that ensure the continuity of the projects need to be funded first.
- Impact: Funds should be distributed in ways that support mission work, agnostic with regard to where the money was raised.
- Transparency and stability: Decisions about funds distribution must be made transparently, in accordance with published guidelines and processes. The model must enable each entity to carry out financial planning to support efforts to be sustainable.
- Decentralization: Funds must be distributed in ways that support decentralized programmatic activities for furthering our mission.
- Responsibility and accountability: Funds must be distributed in ways that enable the Wikimedia movement to confidently assure donors that their donations will be safeguarded appropriately, and that spending will be in line with our mission and with the messages used to attract donors.
- Collaboration and openness: Funds must be distributed in ways that are collaborative and open, and which respect the diverse and international nature of the Wikimedia movement.
