Do you see a charitable giving or corporate social responsibility (CSR) program as a potential tool for attracting the best people to your organization, helping others in the process? Worried about the start-up costs and pushback from management? A Million Dollars in Change dispels the myth that organizational programs benefiting the community don't earn their keep, and Cavalluzzi shows how to launch them on a budget.
