To volunteer for a brainstorming session, contact HBS Community Partners Executive Director, Elaine MacDonald at elaine@hbscp.org. 

About Brainstorming: These sessions are designed to give HBS alumni the opportunity to make an impact in an easy to attend, two-hour session focused on solving an important issue facing a Bay Area nonprofit organization — similar to analyzing a case study at HBS! Join a small group of fellow alumni over a light lunch or dinner to learn about the nonprofit and provide meaningful advice.
