The Corporate Service Corps is IBM’s corporate citizenship initiative to provide small businesses, educational institutions and non profit organizations with sophisticated pro bono consulting and skill development. The goal of the CSC is to encourage job creation and improve local conditions.

Since the official launch in July, 2008 the CSC has deployed 300 IBM employees from 44 countries on 29 teams to 9 countries. Projects vary from assisting networks of entrepreneurs and small businesses trying to grow to the utilization of information technology by communities left behind the "digital divide." I welcome you to explore my site and follow the experiences of my stories, pictures and videos of my CSC assignment in the Philippines in February 2010.
