On February 22, 2010, the corporate giving community celebrated International Corporate Philanthropy Day (ICPD), building awareness of corporate-community partnerships and inspiring businesses around the world to engage further in philanthropy.

CECP was proud to lead this global effort to engage more business leaders in promoting the importance of corporate philanthropy. On this day, CECP held the 5th Annual Board of Boards CEO Conference in New York, along with a host of media-friendly events. CECP works with partner agencies to publicize these programs and communicate the overall benefits and importance of corporate philanthropy.

For the third consecutive year, International Corporate Philanthropy  Day included a special program on Philanthropy with the United Nations, focusing on "Engaging philanthropy to promote gender equality and women’s empowerment."

Save the date! Next year, ICPD will be held on February 28, 2011.
