This workshop helps businesses better understand why and how they give and how they can be more strategic about what they give and to whom – in other words, when to say “yes” and how to say “no” to the many requests for assistance from nonprofit and community groups.
In today’s economic climate, having a thoughtful plan for your company’s community giving is even more important. Your business might have fewer resources to contribute, while at the same time the requests for help are growing. You are committed to making your community a healthy and strong place for your employees and your neighbors, but know you can’t respond to each
and every request.
The goals for this workshop are to give you:
· the outline for a giving plan that will help you be more strategic about your giving
· tools to help implement that plan, and
· an opportunity to share experiences and best practices with your business colleagues.
(Please note: This workshop is for businesses that do not have a format, or structured, giving plan. It is for our business members, and is not appropriate for individuals from non-profit or government organizations.)
