Non-Solicitation Policy
Women in Development of New Jersey (WID-NJ) is committed to creating a welcoming and supportive community where members can network, share ideas, and build meaningful professional relationships.
To maintain this environment, WID-NJ has established the following Non-Solicitation Policy.
Policy
WID-NJ members, guests, and event participants may not use WID-NJ events, membership lists, communications, or other resources for unsolicited fundraising, business promotion, or recruitment.
This includes:
- Fundraising: Soliciting donations, sponsorships, or financial support for outside organizations or personal causes.
- Membership Recruitment: Soliciting or recruiting WID-NJ members to join other professional associations, nonprofit organizations, boards, committees, or membership groups.
- Business Promotion: Unsolicited promotion or sales of products, services, or consulting opportunities.
- Unrelated Event Invitations: Sending unsolicited invitations or promoting events, fundraisers, or activities unrelated to WID-NJ or its mission without prior approval.
- Use of Member Information: Using WID-NJ membership lists or contact information for fundraising, recruitment, marketing, or other promotional purposes without permission.
Professional Networking and Collaboration
WID-NJ encourages members to share information about their work, build relationships, and explore professional opportunities.
This policy is not intended to discourage collaboration or conversations about other organizations. Members may share opportunities when there is mutual interest, provided the interaction is respectful and does not involve unwanted solicitation or pressure.
Exceptions
Solicitation or promotional activities may be permitted with prior approval from WID-NJ leadership, including official partnerships, sponsorships, and collaborative programs.
Compliance
Members are expected to respect this policy. Violations may result in a warning, restricted participation, or other appropriate action as determined by WID-NJ leadership, consistent with the organization's governing documents.
Our Commitment
WID-NJ values genuine connections, collaboration, and mutual support. This policy helps ensure our community remains a trusted space for professional development and networking.
Our goal is to build relationships, not solicit members.
