Accountable Fundraising
Accountable Fundraising is a term coined by nycTIES used to describe a non-profit organization holding its members "accountable" for their donations by showing them the direct impact of their fundraising efforts. This accountability usually comes in the form of a vote, where the members select a specific program or charity that they would like their money to go to. From Wikipedia
