David Caprara and Robert L. Mallett - Corporate Philanthropy 2.0 - washingtonpost.com: "Corporate Philanthropy 2.0 By David Caprara and Robert L. Mallett Special to washingtonpost.com's Think Tank Town Wednesday, November 28, 2007; 12:00 AM
A volunteer scientist working to improve patient care in northern Kenya and an accountant building a financial reporting system for a small NGO in Capetown. A doctor assessing training for medical colleagues in Russia and a pharmacist working at a border clinic helping Burmese refugees. An MBA in Rwanda procuring potentially life-saving medicines.
To paraphrase, these are not your grandfather's or your father's volunteers. Instead, they are the faces of a revolution in corporate citizenship -- from highly trained and skilled professionals volunteering for company-sponsored and specialized assignments around the world to more localized volunteering programs engaging employees and local volunteers in country."
