OPGS manages a unique and state of the art donations process, which allows District agencies, including DCPS, to solicit and accept donations from outside sources. In addition to augmenting the City’s in-kind and financial resources, which support programs and services, the donations process promotes greater accountability and transparency in the District Government, and ensures compliance with federal and local ethic’s guidelines.

OPGS provides technical assistance and donations management training to District agencies subject to the Mayor’s authority to ensure their compliance with the Rules of Conduct Governing Donations to the District Government, as mandated by the following:

• Mayors’ Memorandum 2015-001 (dated August 21, 2015)  [PDF].
