W.K. Kellog Foundation

The W.K. Kellogg Foundation is pleased to be working with Netsquared to be a part of enhancing the capacity of emerging leaders from organizations to be more efficient in serving various communities through Web-based nonprofit innovations.

The W.K. Kellogg Foundation was established in 1930 "to help people help themselves through the practical application of knowledge and resources to improve their quality of life and that of future generations." Its programming activities center around the common vision of a world in which each person has a sense of worth; accepts responsibility for self, family, community, and societal well-being; and has the capacity to be productive, and to help create nurturing families, responsive institutions, and healthy communities.

Community Technology Foundation of California

The Community Technology Foundation of California (CTFC) encourages the design and integration of networking technology and its application to improve social and economic conditions. Fundamental to our mission is the idea of collaboration, inclusion and accessibility which is why we are proud to support the Net ² conference. The Net ² conference will be addressing nonprofit web innovation and working towards a goal of using the web for social change.

CTFC is a statewide public foundation dedicated to increasing access to and use of information and telecommunications technology by underserved communities, including communities of color, low-income, disabled, immigrant, limited English proficient, rural and inner-city communities, seniors and at-risk youth. We view technology not as an end in itself, but as the key that unlocks communication, knowledge, and access to services that promote social justice, improve critical educational and economic development, and cultural dimensions of community life.

SalesForce.com/Foundation

Salesforce.com/foundation is sponsoring out of the belief and values of collaboration, sharing and community. Salesforce.com/Foundation offers the SalesForce tool at no cost to nearly 600 nonprofits. Their sponsorship is a natural fit with what Net2 is all about.

The salesforce.com/foundation was officially launched in July 2000 by Secretary of State, Colin L. Powell. The launch of the Foundation came less than a year after the launch of the company with the goal of building philanthropic programs at the very beginning of the company's existence rather than waiting until the company had reached a certain level of 'comfortable success'. Our belief is if emphasis is placed on social programs from a company's inception, the value of service will be a core cultural value that is built into the fabric of the company.
