Disclaimer

The Greater Philadelphia Cultural Alliance supports government transparency, and we are grateful to City of Philadelphia Managing Director Michael DiBerardinis for his support as an ex officio board member of the Alliance. The following disclaimer describes official city policy, in accordance with Philadelphia’s ethical standards.  

Please note, should you decide to contribute, your contribution neither advantages nor disadvantages you from pursuing contracting opportunities or in obtaining services or other benefits from the City of Philadelphia.  We expect that contributions to support the Greater Philadelphia Cultural Alliance are for a public purpose and are made without the expectation of private benefit or concern about adverse effect as a result.

In addition, please note that City law requires transparency of solicitations made by a City official or employee to current or prospective City professional services contractors, recipients of financial assistance or principal contractors or subcontractors for best value contracts. Therefore, if you seek or already have either a professional services contract or a best value contract with the City, or seek or already receive financial assistance from the City, and in the prior two years any City officer or employee directly solicited you or a representative of your organization for your contribution, you must disclose the name and title of the soliciting City officer or employee, the date of the request, the amount/nature of the request, whether/when the request was fulfilled, and the amount/nature of your response (e.g., amount of contribution).  For more detailed information on the City’s disclosure/eligibility requirements, including mandatory deadlines for filing disclosures, please refer to https://secure.phila.gov/econtract/.
