But we know that these conversations cannot happen slap-dash. They need to be had well, had considerately, and lead to practical change. And one of the most important issues we've yet to address is fundraiser burnout. And the truth is, we're both incredibly tired. [3/4]

Itβs not the great resignation: people want to work
Itβs the great reset: people donβt want to work for companies that treat them like shit

Have you made a complaint to the @ChtyCommission? Would you be willing to speak about your experience (anonymously, with a voice modulator if necessary)? Our DMs are open and we'd love to hear from you.

We've changed our format slightly to deep dive into the big questions facing fundraisers. Our first episode: how do I complain to the @ChtyCommission and will anything change if I do?

I have serious podcast catchup to do and starting with this @FixingFundPod with @NonprofitAF and @theethicalrain @MichelleSMuri - it is AMAZING and every fundraiser should listen.

Charity bods at all levels: Do you mainly consider yourself as part of a cause, or part of an org? Genuine question to inform something Iβm writing. Thanks x

In light of further communication that is landing with members, survivors and complainants ONLY on twitter and no other platform, I ask this question again @clairerowney and @CIOFtweets
Who is in control of the investigation?
Who does know what is going on?
Who is accountable?
11 Jun 2021
Claire, please can you confirm who is actually in control of this investigation? Many of us have / had high hopes of you getting a grip of it. If you donβt know whatβs going on, who does and who is accountable?

TW: Sexual assault allegations.
Thread: So it seems much of the anger in the #fundraising community right now stems from confusion over what was actually announced y'day.
Here's my understanding of situation at CIoF re: investigations into allegations of sexual misconduct. 1/?

The former CEO of @CIOFtweets claims he followed the "complaints and disciplinary processes".
When I reported abuse to him in writing, his PA arranged a meeting IN A PUB for him and me to discuss it...alone.
He then told me they were not going to investigate it.

Today, the sector is having an incredibly important conversation. How do we ensure that the people changing the world today are well enough to change the world tomorrow? I am proud to call @ClaireWarner my friend, and proud of her for making this happen: fundraisingeverywhere.com/prβ¦

Question - if we could start the charity sector again from scratch tomorrow, what from the current world would you keep?

THREAD: The core focus of our podcast is what we, as a sector, can do better. We've talked about everything from racist recruitment practices to donor power dynamics, but the truth is there's a lot of work to do, and a lot more noise needs to be made on certain issues. [1/4]

We can't address burnout when we are both on the verge of it ourselves. So we're taking a break for a while, so when we do turn our microphones back on, we can make it matter. We fundamentally believe the sector can improve. We look forward to making it happen with you. [4/4]
