In 2007 Booz Allen Hamilton set out to help small nonprofits in the Washington, D.C. area gain access to expert advice and guidance on management and fundraising that was otherwise unattainable for them due to cost. In the four years since, the Booz Allen Hamilton Nonprofit Development Conference Series has grown exponentially and now successfully serves more than 400 unique nonprofit organizations with top tier guest speakers from around the metropolitan area who provide the sorely needed advice and guidance.
Film Festival finalists chosen; next round voting is now open
By Susan Thomas, Assistant Director, Electronic Communications, Boston College Center
The polls have closed, the digital smoke has cleared and the first round votes have all been tabulated, narrowing down 29 entries to 10 finalists in the Boston College Center for Corporate Citizenship’s 2010 Film Festival.
Beginning today and continuing through April 2, Boston College Center members, or nonmembers who have registered for the conference, can vote in the Center’s online Member Community. If you are already a member of our online Member Community, click here to vote. Click here to learn more about the community and request an invitation to join (Center members only).
There were more than 30,000 views of the videos during voting by the general public. Selection of the winner from among the 10 finalists now goes into the Boston College Center’s online Member Community. This year’s 10 finalists in alphabetical order are: Accenture, Allstate Insurance Company, Amway Corporation, Campbell Soup Company, Consolidated Edison Company, Dow Chemical, Ernst & Young LLP, FedEx Corporation, ITT Corporation and Pricewaterhouse Coopers LLP.
All 10 of the final videos will be showcased at the Center’s 2010 International Corporate Citizenship Conference, April 11-13, at the InterContinental Hotel in Boston. The Film Festival will culminate with a red carpet announcement of the winner at the conference.
The competition among the 10 finalists starts anew with the voting in the Member Community, as the first-round votes do not carry over to the final voting. Among this year’s finalist are last year’s winner, FedEx Corporation, and the 2009 third-place finisher, Pricewaterhouse Coopers LLP.
