Don't stand idly by if your company is involved in dangerous or illegal operations. This moral letter of resignation can help you take a stand against corruption.
For six years, I have woken every weekday morning excited to go to work, knowing that XYZ Nonprofit was committed to driving positive change in our community. I truly loved my position. It was more than a job; it was my passion.
What happened yesterday changed everything.
With a heavy heart, I must resign effective immediately. I cannot be a part of an organization that condones the egregious ethical breach that has occurred. This was my dream job, at an organization whose values matched mine—or so I thought.
I'd like to clear out my desk and collect my personal belongings at your convenience. Please call or text me via my cell phone to arrange this.
