Just because we are small, does not mean entrepreneurs and small businesses are exempt from thinking about our business social responsibility and the Triple Bottom Line - profitability AND social and environmental impacts. I encourage my small business clients (and myself!!) to get involved strategically based on a review of what resources are available which could be of use to a nonprofit organization. Since many of us don't have much, if any, dollars earmarked for our philanthropy budget, maybe volunteering or offering pro bono services is the way to get involved...but it might be something else. I think the real key is to try to be very strategic and make the distinction in your head between individual philanthropy and business philanthropy - a tall order for entrepreneurs who feel they "are" their business instead of "have" a business. I think it makes sense for you to figure out where to volunteer with a cause that matters to you AND could also have you can increase your visibility, make new contacts, etc. Time is too short...

I was just curious to learn about the services you volunteer to the non-profit community.
There was no direct reason for the question, just education on the services you provide.

What a great idea!

Even if this part of the website was more of a loss then profit for the company, the result of donating your time must of been satisfying enough.

Persons that volunteer, also could be considered a "natural entrepreneur", as it is this type of leadership, devotion and passion that drives a successful business.

My name is Michael Stratton, and my company is Integrity Technology Specialists.

Our vision is to empower entrepreneurs through the use of definitive Web Technology.

Even if only a "self-proclaimed" entrepreneur, and not yet completely successful, I have caught the bug.
