Online Discussion Tomorrow: Corporate Giving in Turbulent Times

Join us on Tuesday, August 19, for a live online discussion about the best ways to raise money from corporations in these turbulent economic times.

The conversation will draw on data The Chronicle released today as part of its annual survey of giving trends at the nation’s biggest companies.

Our guests will be:

• Mark W. Shamley, chief executive of the Association of Corporate Contributions Professionals, in Orlando, Fla. The organization helps executives who oversee giving efforts at their companies.

• Nancy Williams, national program director at the Verizon Foundation, in Basking Ridge, N.J.

The Chronicle’s online discussions are free and open to everyone. People who ask questions in advance have a better chance of getting answers.
