    Donor Codes of Conduct to Fight Sexual Harassment of Nonprofit Fundraisers Are Growing More Common

    By Rasheeda Childress

    How the Supreme Court Ruling on Race Affects Nonprofits and Foundations

Nonprofit News From Elsewhere Online

A Florida couple whose son was killed in the Marjorie Stoneman Douglas High School mass shooting is working to link up similarly bereaved families and fight for an end to gun violence. Manuel and Patricia Oliver, whose son, Joaquin, died in the Parkland, Fla., massacre five years ago, have kitted out an old school bus to travel to sites of mass shootings. In addition to sharing rally stages with them and campaigning for new laws, the families who come to greet the Olivers have developed a web of treasured, if sorrowful, friendships. “We all know that we exist. What if we start planning together? What if we can support each other?” said Manuel Oliver, who was arrested earlier this year after disrupting a hearing by congressional Republicans on Second Amendment rights. The bus tour is funded by the couple’s nonprofit, Change the Ref, which they founded after Joaquin was murdered. Among other actions, the Olivers have also led a sit-in at Congress. (New York Times)

Background from the Chronicle: Philanthropy’s Push to Stop Gun Violence

Religious charities are Americans’ most popular place to donate, according to a new poll. About 20 percent of people surveyed in May said they had given to a faith-based group in the previous year. Older Americans were more likely to favor religious charities, while members of Gen Z, born from 1997 to 2012, gave more to “human rights, animal-related, children’s health causes, and environmental causes.” One-third of those surveyed said they do not give to charity, and 68 percent said they would not have enough money this year to donate. Asian Americans somewhat favored disaster relief and groups promoting children’s education. “Black Americans prioritized human rights and social-justice causes, while white Americans were unique for preferring animal-related and military charities.” The survey of about 5,000 people was conducted by the Collage Group research and marketing agency.
