The Quiet Work: Commemorating 45 Years of the T. Rowe Price Foundation

There’s a question I often come back to. Not in meetings or presentations, but in the quieter moments. On a drive through West Baltimore or my own neighborhood. After a conversation with a tenured nonprofit leader. In the space between what we plan and what actually happens.

Social Responsibility: Worthy, but Worthwhile?

Today’s large companies understand the value and need for corporate social responsibility (CSR): “green” programs, charitable donations, volunteerism and more. Considering the size, influence and resources found at such companies, it may not be difficult for them to establish, monitor and publicize high-profile corporate social responsibility efforts.

P&G, Gina Rodriguez Launch Campaign to Benefit Feeding America

Procter & Gamble Co. is partnering with actress Gina Rodriguez and the nonprofit Feeding America in a new advertising campaign that aims to build the confidence of girls as they enter puberty.

The Cincinnati-based maker of Always menstrual pads (NYSE: PG) said a recent survey indicated that nearly one in five American girls have either left school early or missed school entirely because they did not have access to period products.

Timberland Supports Haitian Farmers as They Plant Haiti’s First Commercial Cotton Crop in 30 Years

Smallholder farmers near Gonaives, Haiti recently planted the first commercial cotton crop in the country since 1987, with support from Timberland and other brands. The farmers planted a demonstration farm which will train other smallholder farmers to cultivate cotton. As a key supporter of the effort, Timberland provided participating farmers with shirts as a symbol of the future market for the cotton they planted. The global outdoor lifestyle brand, in partnership with the Smallholder Farmers Alliance, aims to bring cotton farming back to Haiti not only to create a new supply chain for organic cotton to use in its products, but also to help reforest Haiti and improve the lives of smallholder farmers.
