BBJ Philanthropy Summit: It's the business of giving - Boston Business Journal:

BBJ Philanthropy Summit: It's the business of giving - Boston Business Journal:: "Keep the dialogue going, follow the money, put business-minded people on your board and research a company's philanthropic mission before pitching it for money. That was the advice business leaders gave nonprofits Wednesday during the first-annual Corporate Philanthropy Summit, hosted by the Boston Business Journal.

The event, held at the Fairmont Copley Plaza in Boston, was sold out to more than 600 business and nonprofit people who were hungry to discuss the state of corporate philanthropy in Greater Boston. They were there to network, exchange ideas and, in the case of some nonprofits, to win over volunteers."
