Stories
But numbers don't tell the story as well as our members can. So, let's meet some...
Meet Kevin.
Kevin was just hired to support his company's corporate social responsibility (CSR) efforts. He values BCCCC membership for all the different ways he can find reliable information, quickly.
Last week, he searched the BCCCC website for his target topic, "disaster relief." He found a pre-recorded webinar, several articles, corporate disaster response blogs, an "issue brief" (like a miniature whitepaper), and the meeting notes from a member conversation on this subject. He's had similar success searching dozens of other terms, too. ccc.bc.edu is now his go-to source when he needs industry data.

What Is the Boston College Center for Corporate Citizenship?
We're the hub for all things CSR.
With over 10,000 professional and 500 corporate members, the Center is the world's largest, most-established CSR association. Our work is rooted in a world-class school of business, and constantly informed by the collective knowledge and experience of our members. Our impartiality is also a key differentiator; we don't rank or advocate; we exist only to support your CSR efforts.
We're a renowned academic center.
Founded by the Carroll School of Management, within Boston College, the BCCCC (the "Center") is a recognized name in higher education and the business world, alike. Members enjoy discounted rates on our world-class educational offerings, including corporate citizenship courses, CSR certificates, and customized team training programs.
We're your on-call research department.
Our Center staff is comprised of experienced CSR researchers, who are constantly curating the latest trends and data points in the field. Center staff can also be called on to field individual "knowledge requests," exclusively from our members--for free.
We're your ticket to the party.
Working in CSR can sometimes feel isolating. You may be part of a very small crew at your own company, but here you are part of an enormous community. Members enjoy countless opportunities to connect, problem solve, mentor, and more.
