Corporate community investment, corporate social responsibility, or corporate social engagement – regardless of what you call it – if you are doing it, corporate philanthropy has likely become an integral part of both your long-term business strategy and your corporate culture.  If you are not, you may become part of the growing wave of corporate philanthropy in the future.  When corporate giving is embedded in your mission and goals, and aligned with your objectives, it trickles down into your corporate culture, and can be a powerful tool to attract and retain talented employees, support and improve corporate image, and support the various communities and constituents with which you interact. 

Corporate giving takes many forms and you may be tasked with managing more than one. To be both strategically effective and tactically efficient, you need specialized tools to gather, monitor, measure, track and report on just about everything in your giving programs.  In short, you need a strong and flexible system for managing the “inputs and outputs” of giving.
