Organizacje non-profit występują w wielu kształtach i formach, zaś za swój cel obrały udzielanie niekomercyjnej pomocy w różnych sferach potrzeb, zatem istnieje wiele definicji organizacji niekierujących się osiąganiem zysku. Celem artykułu jest zidentyfikowanie uwarunkowań i sposobów na proces tworzenia brandingu przez organizacje non-profit, jak również zbadanie, jak proces brandingu jest postrzegany przez zarządzających marką tych organizacji na polskim rynku z użyciem koncepcji IDEA (ang. integrity, democracy, ethics i affinity – rzetelność, demokracja, etyka i podobieństwo). W charakterze implikacji praktycznej wejrzenie w to pozwoli menedżerom organizacji wolontariackich lepiej zrozumieć wizerunek marki ich własnej i innych organizacji oraz mieć bardziej strategiczne podejście do procesu brandingu. Artykuł badawczy został oparty na studiach literatury i analizie sprawozdań oraz na własnych badaniach autorek.

Некоммерческие организации выступают во многих формах и в качестве своей цели имеют предоставление некоммерческой помощи в разных сферах нужд, и потому существует много определний некоммерческих организаций. Цель статьи – выявить определители и способы формирования процесса брендинга некоммерческими организациями, а также изучить, как процесс брендинга воспринимается менеджерами бренда этих организаций на польском рынке, с применением концепции IDEA (англ. integrity, democracy, ethics и affinity – надежность, демократия, этика и сходство). В качестве практической импликации проникновение в суть вопроса поможет менеджерам благотворительных организаций более точно понять имидж бренда своей и других организаций и применить более стратегический подход к процессу брендин- га. Эта исследовательская статья основана на изучении литературы, анализе отчетов и на собственных исследованиях авторов.
