Hi,
Based on the suggestions here, I have split the last question "There
should be an advance discussion with members for every in-kind
donation" into large and small (under £1,000). Apologies if folks need
to re-visit the table.
I actually had in mind in-kind donations of less than £1,000 or so in
value (like a couple of nice laptops). If an in-kind donation of kit
or software licenses were awfully large (more than£20,000) I would
personally look for serious engagement with members, not just trustees
or staff off in some dark back-room making a deal. For example we
might be offered free licenses for an on-line CRM system, there would
be significant implications and getting it free is not the most
significant issue for us choosing such a tool.
