  • Ebay: from Green to Gold
    CASE: M-329 DRAFT DATE: 07/15/2010 EBAY: FROM GREEN TO GOLD US consumers are truly “sleeping giants” in terms of the ability to affect change through purchase behavior. ---Robert Chatwani, Director Global Citizenship, eBay Inc. INTRODUCTION When the devastating earthquake hit Haiti in January 2010, eBay‘s response was fast and powerful. The eBay foundation provided $100,000, as well as matching gifts for employees‘ donations, to support the relief efforts of The American Red Cross, Save the Children and Oxfam. While most companies can provide support through a corporate foundation, due to its large community, eBay‘s reach is unmatched. It mobilized this community by enabling buyers to make a contribution at checkout (Give@Checkout), and waived the processing fees for these donations. Celebrity giving on the site included Scarlett Johannson‘s offer of tickets to the opening night of her Broadway play and Stephen Colbert‘s offer of the interview table from ―The Colbert Report‖. Through PayPal, users could also make gifts directly to nonprofit organizations involved in the relief efforts; eBay waived processing fees for these gifts for a 30 day period. Finally, sellers could commit to donating a percentage of their listings‘ final sale price (Donate Now) to the nonprofits of their choice. By January 21, 2010, the eBay community had raised over $835,000 through the Give@Checkout and Donate Now features on the site. These actions showed the power of eBay‘s consumers and their power to make purchasing choices based on issues that were most important to them. Enabling users to donate to the causes they cared about was important and valuable but it would not be the extent of eBay‘s global citizenship.

    Santa Clara County Community Wildfire Protection Plan Annex 18 – County of Santa Clara Parks and Recreation Department ANNEX 18. COUNTY OF SANTA CLARA PARKS AND RECREATION DEPARTMENT Prepared by: Flint Glines, Seth Hiatt, Don Rocha, John Patterson, and Barry Hill Santa Clara County acquired its first parkland in 1924, purchasing 400 acres near Cupertino, which became Stevens Creek County Park. In 1956, the Department of Parks and Recreation was formed. Currently, the regional parks system has expanded to 29 parks encompassing nearly 48,000 acres. Santa Clara County Parks and Recreation Department (County Parks) provides a sustainable system of diverse regional parks, trails, and natural areas that connects people with the natural environment, and supports healthy lifestyles, while balancing recreation opportunities with the protection of natural, cultural, historic, and scenic resources (https://www.sccgov.org/sites/parks/AboutUs/Pages/About-the-County-Regional-Parks.aspx). County Parks are regional parks located close to home, yet away from the pressures of the valley’s urban lifestyle. The parks offer opportunities for recreation in a natural environment to all County residents. Regional parks are larger in size, usually more than 200 acres, than local neighborhood or community parks. Many of the County’s regional parks also feature points of local historic interest. County park locations are shown in Figure 18.1.

  • Meg Whitman to Step Down As President and CEO of Ebay
    January 23, 2008 Meg Whitman to Step Down as President and CEO of eBay John Donahoe Will Become President and CEO on March 31 San Jose, Calif., January 23, 2008 – eBay Inc. (Nasdaq: EBAY; www.ebay.com) announced today that Meg Whitman will step down as President and CEO of eBay on March 31, 2008. Whitman will remain on the company's Board of Directors. Whitman joined eBay in March 1998. At the time, eBay was a U.S.-only, auction-based trading site with 500,000 registered users, just 30 employees, and $4.7 million in revenue. Today, the company has hundreds of millions of users worldwide, more than 15,000 employees and nearly $7.7 billion in revenue. Whitman led eBay to become one of the fastest-growing companies in history. Over the last 10 years, she has built an unforgettable portfolio of brands and a thriving business that enables millions of people to trade, pay and communicate online. "Meg's passion for all things eBay changed the world," said Pierre Omidyar, Founder of eBay and Chairman of the Board. "With humor, smarts and unflappable determination, Meg took a small, barely known online auction site and helped it become an integral part of our lives. We're all enormously grateful that Meg dedicated herself to stewarding eBay through its 10 most formative years." eBay's Board of Directors voted unanimously to elect John Donahoe President and CEO. Donahoe came to eBay in February 2005 from Bain & Company, where he had served as worldwide managing director since 1999. For nearly three years, Donahoe has been President of eBay Marketplaces, which accounts for more than 70 percent of the company's global revenues.

  • Using MACLA's Map Tool This Paper Presents Examples of Documenting
    Using MACLA’s Map Tool This paper presents examples of documenting, displaying, and discussing the social impact of MACLA through the use of geographic maps. Nine cultural arts organizations, all part of the Space for Change award program administered by Leveraging Investments in Creativity (LINC)1, participated in this study by providing budgetary data, programming information, and data regarding visitors and programming clientele. We provide examples of how data on community and local support can be mapped geographically and used in various settings from internal management discussions to part of grant applications. The map tool created for MACLA was developed to assist the organization in documenting and articulating its community setting and support. The map tool can be found on MACLA’s ‘front page’ of our web site at http://web.williams.edu/Economics/ArtsEcon/MACLALINC.html. There you will find a MACLA map option with an overlay of Census variables for Santa Clara County, and a map option with an overlay of Census variables for the five mile (local) area around MACLA.2 We offer the choice because one geographic region may be of more interest than the other in writing particular types of reports. Sometimes it would be more useful to show where in the county one is developing partners or attracting participants; other times the local area may be of greater interest. In this paper we will work with the Santa Clara County map, but everything presented here also applies to the 5 mile radius map. We do not provide interpretations of the many interesting aspects of MACLA’s online map here.
