Social responsibility between nonprofit and for-profit organizations in the outdoor recreation and conservation industry

by Chloe Boughton
This study investigated how social responsibility is managed between for-profit and nonprofit organizations. It used key informant interviews to seek an answer for this question, which will be subsequently coded and analyzed for common themes. The interviews are still underway, but preliminary findings indicate that within the same industry social responsibility includes similar practices, but for-profits tend to incorporate donations more than nonprofits and nonprofits organize work towards building a community more than for-profits.
