The MBA CSR Job Search

Hello everyone!
I am back from my cross country road trip and happy to report I am officially based in the San Francisco Bay Area again.
I have many stories to share from the road, but before I recap my trip, I wanted to give a quick plug for my friend and fellow Twitterer Aman Singh Das, Corporate [...]

Our Trip Cross Country

As I’ve mentioned in previous posts, my husband Dan and I have decided to trade in our winter jackets and snow boots for the sunny (and ok, sometimes overcast) skies of San Francisco.

To get there, we’ve decided to take two weeks and drive cross country. After all, after two years of business school, I think [...]

The Changebase Turns 1

I’m incredibly pleased to announce that May marks the one year anniversary of The Changebase!
It’s amazing to think that what started out as just a small experiment has actually become one of the most fulfilling projects I’ve ever worked on.
The Changebase has not only been a great vehicle to learn and share ideas, but it [...]

The State of Corporate Citizenship

I’m very pleased to announce that I’ll be live blogging (and tweeting!) from this year’s Boston College Center for Corporate Citizenship Conference April 11 – 13.
In case you’re not familiar with it, the BCCCC hosts an incredible conference each year that includes a “Who’s Who” list of CSR, sustainability, and philanthropy professionals from around the [...]

A Feast to Sink Your Teeth Into

This past summer I got wind of an organization called All Day Buffet and an upcoming event they were hosting called The Feast. With names like that, I was immediately intrigued (after all, I do love food!). But when I read more about the event, I started to get really excited.
The Feast Conference gathers the world’s [...]

Coming to a Theatre Near You

Recently I came across the story of Colin Beavan, a blogger also known as No Impact Man. For one year, Colin and his family committed themselves to living a “no impact” lifestyle, taking incredible steps to reduce their environmental footprint. In Colin’s own words:
No Impact Man is my experiment with researching, developing and adopting a [...]

New Feature: The Basics

In an effort to make the content on The Changebase as user-friendly and understandable as possible, I’ve launched a new feature called “The Basics“.
Sometimes I get so caught up in the technical aspects of CSR, sustainability and other change initiatives that I lose sight of the fact that not everyone spends as much time learning [...]

Share Your Stories on The Changebase

Hi Readers,
As you know, one of my goals for The Changebase is to open this forum up for you to tell your own story. After all, you’re interested in creating change and making a difference in your community – which, by default, means you have your own tales to tell.
With that in mind I’m thrilled [...]

Update: Summer of Social Good

Hi everyone,
I just wanted to provide a quick update to my post from a couple months ago about Mashable’s campaign, Summer of Social Good.
It sounds like the campaign, raising money for World Wildlife Fund, Oxfam America, The Humane Society and Livestrong, was a big success – raising over $33,000 in just a few months. I’ve been [...]

The Changebase Listed As a 3BLMedia Blog

I’m thrilled to announce that last week I was added to 3BL Media’s  list of featured CSR and sustainability bloggers. I’m honored to be included in such a distinguished group of CSR professionals – including Mallen Baker, Fabian Pattberg, Joel Makower, and Sean Stannard-Stockton. It’s also terrific to see that The Changebase is making a few waves [...]
