Anti-Bribery & Fraud Policy

Al-Ihsan Foundation USA is committed to the highest standards of integrity. We prohibit bribery, corruption, and fraud in any form, whether involving public officials, private parties, donors, vendors, or partners.

Scope

This policy applies to board members, employees, volunteers, contractors, interns, and others acting on behalf of the organization, including in the United States and in connection with international programs and partnerships.

Zero tolerance

Offering, promising, giving, soliciting, or accepting bribes or improper advantages to obtain or retain business or a favorable outcome is prohibited. Facilitation payments and kickbacks are not permitted. Fraud, misappropriation, false accounting, and misrepresentation of the organization's activities or finances are strictly prohibited.

Gifts and hospitality

Modest gifts and hospitality may only be given or accepted where they are reasonable, transparent, proportionate, and cannot reasonably be perceived to influence a decision. Anything beyond ordinary courtesy must be declined or approved in line with internal procedures.

Due diligence and partners

We conduct appropriate due diligence on grantees, vendors, and partners commensurate with risk. Third parties must not be used to carry out conduct that would violate this policy if undertaken directly by the organization.

Reporting concerns

Suspected bribery, corruption, or fraud should be reported promptly. You may use our whistleblower process for confidential reporting where appropriate.
