When corporate-community giving is an extension of what your business stands for, employees become engaged and inspired. Concentric circles of benevolence ripple out to suppliers, communities and local non-profits, and everyone benefits. Corporate Karma outlines a practical blueprint for any business leader to follow. --Brad Shaw, SVP, Corporate Communications and External Affairs, The Home Depot
