Fundraising

All employees, including SGEs, are subject to certain restrictions on personal fundraising for nonprofit organizations. These include restrictions on the use of official title, position and authority, and the solicitation of subordinates. (Link to 5 C.F.R. 2635.808(c) for more information).

Additionally, employees may not personally solicit funds or other support from a person known by the employee to be a “prohibited source.”

With respect to SGEs, however, this restriction is limited to a narrower subset of the definition of prohibited source. SGEs are prohibited only from personally soliciting persons whose interests may be affected substantially by the performance or nonperformance of the SGE’s official duties.
