At the Giving Conference (http://www.globalchicago.net/giving/givingwiki.cgi?GivingConferenceWikiHome) that Michael Herman and I and a number of others were involved in back in July, there were a number of people present from the corporate and philanthropic community,. We used OST for two days to look at new forms of philanthropy and giving and there were conversations at the conference on the issues of volunteerism as well. I think our own Ashely Cooper convened one of those.
At any rate, the proceedings are online at Michael's wiki and I'd be happy to put you in personal contact with some of the corporate sector attendees who's eyes were opened a little at the power of the process.
