As I expect you know, volunteer work can help build stronger communities and in the same stride assist those in need. Organizing this kind of event can be quite time consumung by itself, and before you know it you don’t have half as long left to actually do some good. Moreover, as everyone knows, when volunteering becomes a team effort with co-workers, it will be far more fun.

When Henry Kravis and George Roberts founded Kohlberg, Kravis, Roberts & Co (KKR) in the mid-seventies with some assistance from the First Chicago Corporation, the firm’s specialization was in “bootstrap” buyouts. However, hoping to make their acquisitions greener, KKR have rolled out an innovative green proposal which has fundamentally transformed the way business concerns and environmental groups function.

As you probably know, volunteering is a great way to strengthen community bonds and in the same stride assist people in need. The obvious problem is that freeing up the time to volunteer often actually wastes some of that very same free time. And don’t you think that if you had your co-workers active alongside you, you’d all have a better time while volunteering?

There is a new, very cool trend coming about these days, in spite the fact that many people will not have heard of it. Most if not all accomplished CEOs are actively engaged in charity nowadays. You’ll probably have seen the name of Mr. Naveen Jain the CEO as well as co-founder of Intelius, Inc. the company featuring background checks and public records services. Well beyond having made the Forbes list “400 Richest in America” in 2000, this enterprising businessman has been honored with various distinguished awards, foremost the WSA Industry Achievement Award, the Albert Einstein Technology Medal, and the Ernst & Young Entrepreneur of the Year Award, to name a few of them. But it does not end here. Because Mr. Naveen Jain and his family are just as enthusiastic about philanthropy and will attempt to lend a helping hand as regularly as they can.
