I think it's fabulous, and what corporations SHOULD be doing. There reaches a point where rich is rich, and more money isn't going to make you any richer. Why not do some good with that extra?

Thanks for posting this Pat. I had only heard about their plug-in car experiment, but not the other work they are doing.

I had not heard about Google.org, but I was aware that Google offers their AdWords at no cost to non-profits. I like where their minds are at...

Help

A few things to consider before joining Smaller Indiana:
1. Please use your real name (first and last) when you sign up, or we cannot open your account

2. Please do not use logos or commercial images for your profile photo

3. Events should be posted in the events calendar

4. You can post pretty much anything you want on your own personal page (self promotion, etc), and you can change the style of your personal profile page to reflect your corporate identification if you so choose.

5. Please keep all comments civil and polite. It's OK to feel strongly about a subject, and it's OK to be critical of ideas, but please refrain from personal attacks of any kind.

If you witness or experience any issues, please contact admin@smallerindiana.com and we will look into the matter.

6. Smaller Indiana is supported by its members, and by corporate sponsors. If you're interested in learning more about sponsorship, please call Pat Coyle at 317 332 7878.
