For you social impact folks who might feel alone at your companies . . . take a listen to this presentation by Denielle Sachs, Senior Director & Global Head of APCO Impact, at the Social Innovation Summit on June 5, 2024.
"As economic uncertainties loom, many companies are pulling back on their social commitments. Corporate philanthropy leaders, who often feel like an army of one inside their companies already, are having to once again prove their value. To my peers, I’m here to say: Hang on, the course will correct. The value of philanthropy will be recognized once again. Corporate philanthropy, when used strategically, is too valuable to be sidelined."
