Grantmakers of Western Pennsylvania and Philanthropy West Virginia present a seminar for staff working in corporate philanthropy, community engagement, and CSR.

Over the years, many companies have shifted their community involvement strategy from straight-forward check writing to more sophisticated models that strive to engage their communities and make a greater impact.

Join us as Roger helps us explore the reasons and rationales for building a company’s social responsibility strategy and the current complexities of how businesses can create social impact that benefits nonprofits, community members, employees, and the company alike.

Roger McElrath is Associate Director, Advisory Services for Business for Social Responsibility (BSR). Roger advises on sustainability policies and programs in the areas of supply chain management, community development, stakeholder relations, CSR reporting, and strategy. More about Roger...
