Strategies for Smart Giving
When to Say "Yes" and How to Say "No"
Tuesday, September 18th
12 noon - 1 p.m.
This is a Free Webinar!
Minnesota businesses contribute mightily to the quality of life in their communities. Despite their philanthropy, many lack a formal process. Financial donations, in particular, often are made on a first come, first served basis. Join Jackie Reis, who directs Minnesota Business Gives, a program of the Minnesota Chamber, as she helps you better understand why and how you give and how you can be more strategic about what you give and to whom. For additional information, contact Jackie Reis at jreis@mnchamber.com. To register click here. |
