Align yourself with an organisation that displays global best practice in fundraising and philanthropy. There are distinct differences between the charitable sector and the academic sector which utilises Advancement principles. Advancement typically adheres to a strategic plan in its building of capital. Alumni and alumni networks play important roles in the development of philanthropy in secondary and tertiary education. Charities often have a broader, more community driven focus. Decide how you can align your values with those of an organisation, but check it out thoroughly first. Does it practice what it preaches? That's the decider for me.
