Monday, February 25, 2013

Each year on the fourth Monday in February, the corporate giving community, led by CECP, observes International Corporate Philanthropy Day (ICPD), an international advocacy day intended to build awareness of corporate-community partnerships and to inspire businesses around the world to engage further.

On this day, CECP holds the annual Board of Boards CEO Conference in New York and celebrates the winners of the Excellence Awards in Corporate Philanthropy, along with a host of media-friendly opportunities to draw attention to the important role of the private sector in solving societal problems.

CECP member companies and partner organizations plan philanthropic initiatives and announcements around this day, and CECP works with partner agencies to communicate the overall benefits and importance of corporate philanthropy.
