SUCCESS STORY

and responsibly-governed non-profit organizations. Shreveport Green,  
like nonprofits nationwide, recognizes that major donors are  
sophisticated about their giving choices. Business leaders expect that  
nonprofit organizations follow corporate procedures for limiting risk,  
financial management, and accountability.
