Discourse on Corporate Social Responsibility in the Context of Non-profit Organization

The aim of this article is to make an initial assessment of the basic areas of activity of one selected NGO with respect to compliance with these requirements, on the basis of which an attempt to attain the PN-ISO 26000 standard can be taken. There are various motives that encourage companies to implement the concept of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR). Despite the obvious benefits of CSR, barriers to implementing sustainable business principles are prevalent. To present one implementation of the principles of responsible business, this article refers to the example of the Fundacja Wspólnota Nadziei foundation (Community of Hope Foundation), representing the non-profit sector. The Foundation and the Farm of Life, which represents it, meet the requirements applying to a socially responsible business. Therefore, it should strive to obtain the PN-ISO 26000 standard. This will help the Foundation strengthen its position and thus increase its credibility in social and business contacts.
