Over the past several years, Sonoma County businesses have played a crucial role in the philanthropic infrastructure of our community. Although employers and employees have been facing harsh economic conditions, they have still found the time, energy and money to support and contribute to non-profits and community-based organizations.
Business philanthropy benefits the community, the employees, and the company. Workplace philanthropy has become more strategic as companies realize the significant impact that giving can have on their competitive positions in the marketplace. The portfolio of business giving, in addition to cash and in kind donations, now includes cause-related marketing, community partnerships, workplace campaigns, employee volunteer pro-grams, and fundraising.
