Study Shows Business Outspends Nonprofits 5-1 on Issue Ads
The Annenberg Public Policy Center has published new research examining legislative issue ads, focusing on the Washington, DC, area during the 108th Congress. They found 'Corporate interests outspent citizen/cause interests by more than five to one,' and that advertising on many issues was one-sided. Not surprisingly, the side that spent more was more likely to have a favorable outcome. "

Edson Foundation looking to bring more ethnic-diversity to executive boards of social-service organizations
By MICHAEL LAFLEUR, Sun Staff
LOWELL -- Phil Hall, the administrator of the Theodore Edson Parker Foundation, sees a crucial missing component from many of the city's more established, immigrant-serving, social-service organizations.
Their boards of directors have few members from the largely ethnic-minority populations they serve.
“We recognize it's not easy attracting newcomers to your board, but we think it's an important part of governance,” Hall said.

1. What is strategic philanthropy and where did the concept originate?
So many businesses today want to give back and make a contribution to the community, and yet many are finding that writing a check at the end of the year isn't quite capturing the spirit of giving they are aiming for. Strategic corporate philanthropy harnesses the desire of companies that want to give back and channels that giving spirit into so much more than a line item on their balance sheet. It involves developing a 'partnership' with the right charity and integrating that partnership into the corporate culture."

By Andrew Alderson, Chief Reporter
(Filed: 20/03/2005)
A leading cancer charity has rejected a £30,000 donation from the organiser of sponsored bird shoots because it does not approve of the way the money was raised.
The Institute of Cancer Research was also concerned that its staff might be targeted by animal rights extremists if it publicly accepted the gift. Critics said yesterday that the charity's decision "beggars belief" and was "utterly ridiculous".

Patrick Maloney isn't skimpy when it comes to volunteering his time for a good cause. He's served as the president of the New Year's Eve community celebration First Night, pitched in for the Montana Association of the Blind and has helped at the Great Falls Community Food Bank.
About a year and half ago his volunteer experience helped push his career into a new direction. Maloney is the director of development for the Girl Scouts of Big Sky Council.
It's a contrast from his earlier lines of work. He retired from the U.S. Navy and worked for four years in financial services at Waddell & Reed.
