Douglas County Bank-The Donors Forum of Chicago recently convened a panel discussion on "Media and Corporate Philanthropy

Douglas County Bank: "Last quarter, we missed earnings by a penny a share. Naturally, the media were all over it - why aren't they nearly as quick to cover the great things we're doing for our communities?'
The Donors Forum of Chicago recently convened a panel discussion on 'Media and Corporate Philanthropy' that featured a blend of media, corporate communications, and PR agency perspectives. Questions much like the one above provoked a lively give-and-take between panelists and the audience that encapsulated both the benefits of media coverage of corporate philanthropy, as well as the challenges associated with generating that coverage.
