As a registered charity ourselves, we know how important it is to build relationships with our members in order to tailor our services to ensure you get the best value from us.
Up until July of this year, 新萄新京十大正规网站 Members were asked annually at the point of their membership renewal if they would like to make a voluntary contribution via the 新萄新京十大正规网站 to 立足. This meant that we would share information with 立足, with permission, of who these donors were and pass on the donation to them.
Maintaining high standards of data compliance and donor confidentiality is of course fundamental to both the 新萄新京十大正规网站 and 立足 and we want to ensure our members are clear about who holds their data and what it is used for.
Therefore, from 1st October and going forward and in line with current best practice, rather than making a payment to us via your membership renewal to pass on, we will be signposting you to 立足 to make a direct donation should you wish. This will allow 立足 to build a direct relationship with you and provide a greater insight into how your donation is being used to support other engineers. Information about the important work that 立足 do along with direct links to donate to them will be included in all our 150,000+ member renewal notices each year.
立足 is an important extension of our 新萄新京十大正规网站 family, and we hope that those members who have chosen to donate historically will still continue to do so via a simple process of contacting 立足 directly. We also are committed to helping introduce 立足 and their work to many more members over the coming years and highlighting the wide range of direct support options they have available including regular monthly donations and in-Will gifting. We will continue to remind and encourage members of all the ways to donate to 立足 via the annual renewal process.
