Corporate Responsibility-Social Media-Nonprofit Help Part 2

Social Media is not confine to for-profit corporations.  It is necessary for nonprofits to reach out to their communities to solve community issues.

Nonprofits organizations can be helped by not having them pay any taxes.  You may say back to me but they already do not pay taxes.  This is the biggest false fact which that the majority of people believe about Nonprofits.  The nonprofits organizations pay fuel taxes, gasoline taxes, telecommunication taxes, unemployment taxes, workers compensation tax, social security tax, and the Medicare tax.  Corporate energy companies should try to help nonprofits with their transportation costs such as gasoline, alternative energy, and heating/cooling costs.

Another area of nonprofit help is affiliating with colleges.  Decrease the use of Temps and increase use of Interns.  Decreasing turnover through building a network of college students not only builds an educated work force but also allows recruiting and hands on skill building.

Use the need for housing by college student to support the nonprofits goals and the student’s goals.
