In-kind donation report from McKinsey Quarterly

Howard Lake | 8 October 2003 | News

The US-based McKinsey Quarterly has published a report covering in-kind donations for non-profits.

Saying no to in-kind donations from companies can be difficult but sometimes it can be essential. “Under the wrong circumstances, it can cost an organisation more to accept an in-kind donation than to buy a substitute”, says the latest report from the McKinsey Quarterly.

The report recommends non-profits consider the total cost of ownership of donations, including such variables as transport and repairs, before deciding whether to accept them.

 

 

The report is available online at no charge, but you will need to register at the site to access it.
