Panel on Nonprofit Sector Proposes Additional Recommendations to Congress

The Panel on the Nonprofit Sector has issued a supplemental report with additional recommendations to Congress and the nonprofit sector as part of its continuing effort to strengthen the accountability of the nation's 1.3 million charitable organizations.

The report, a companion to the final report delivered by the panel to Congress in June 2005, incorporates input from leaders across the nonprofit community and makes recommendations in nine areas, including international grantmaking and charitable solicitation.

"These recommendations are another part of the charitable sector's commitment to come together and ensure that its organizations meet the highest possible ethical standards," said Diana Aviv, the panel's executive director and president and CEO of Independent Sector. "The panel will continue to work with the sector and government officials to encourage implementation of its comprehensive proposals."
