Corporate Philanthropy would mean profit making organizations contributing to the cause of charity either in cash or in kind or both, they would either do it as a foundation or through separate groups of volunteers who devote their time.
Trying to Tie in Corporate Philanthropy FLIP (Future Leaders in Philanthropy) students organized a Fundraising Quiz Night to support the Happy Faces Charitable Trust in Gibraltar. That night they raised 2853 pound and that money will be doubled by the Bonita Trust who is a partner to the FLIP Project. This is just one of the initiatives designed by the students of FLIP.
In their 3 year course the young students are trained to know the details of managing and running a charitable trust. They are groomed into the professionals and leaders of the future. It is an initiative with brilliant local students to increase their awareness in social responsibility and to also educate the students on the intricacies of investments and funding.
The students are allowed to research on a local charity and compare it with and internationally acclaimed group having the same objectives.
