- Why Did We Change?The past two years have seen dramatic shifts in the way we receive and share information- Content curation and aggregation*Between social networks, blogs and thousands of niche sites, the sheer volume of content being created across the web is impressive, but can also be overwhelmingRather than mostly focusing on our own content creation through our blog, our website can play a role in helping to cultivate the best content out there on “all things good”- Connecting our community*We recognized that we could be doing more to connect our Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, and other communities right on our site, while making sure visitors could benefit from the great conversations taking place in our social communities as well
- What Did We Change?Our new site is a resource for anyone who cares about getting engaged and giving back to learn more about a range of social-good topics with the hope that many will be inspired to take action- “Learn More, Do More” Content HubsSocial MediaActive CitizenshipGood GivingCorporate Responsibility- Our BlogWith an increased focus on content curation and building a dynamic and interactive Case Foundation community across the web, we will blog less frequently. Our blog will continue to be a source of information on new programs, partnerships, and issues of great importance to our team—and we’re also pulling in feeds from Social Citizens and the Startup America Partnership blog, helping you stay informed on two of our key initiatives
