Overview (Program Summary)

A program hosted by:

ACC Australia

Corporate social responsibility and philanthropy are increasingly being acknowledged as a necessary component of modern corporate activity. As well as being good for the broader community, philanthropic activity can bring direct benefits to your company, including by increasing good will and reputation, improving employee engagement and building client loyalty. 

This webinar presented by Darren Fittler, head of Gilbert + Tobin's Charities + Social Sector group, will explore the most common approaches to corporate philanthropy, including corporate foundation structures, and outline the key things to consider in deciding what approach is right for your company.
