What is this bond?

A South Dakota Paid Solicitor Bond is a surety bond that guarantees a professional fundraiser or solicitor will ethically and lawfully handle charitable contributions they collect. It serves as a financial safeguard for charities and donors against fraudulent practices or misappropriation of funds by the solicitor.

Who needs it?

This bond is generally needed by individuals or businesses operating as paid solicitors for charitable organizations within South Dakota. Anyone compensated to solicit or collect contributions on behalf of a charity typically needs to secure this bond before beginning operations.

Why is it required?
