The collection control in Norway is a non-profit foundation that works to ensure that collection activities in the country are conducted in a responsible manner. The foundation offers an approval process for organizations wishing to raise funds, and has established an OBS list to identify rogue fundraisers. Through ethical guidelines for collection, they help to promote responsible practice in the field.
In addition to approving and monitoring fundraising activities, the Fundraising Control provides advice to donors on how to handle inquiries from fundraisers. The foundation also offers resources related to accounting and auditing, as well as an API for integration with other systems. They publish newsletters and articles that deal with collection practices, and thus contribute to increased knowledge and awareness of the topic.
