Executive Service Corps: Durham

The Executive Service Corps of the Greater Triangle has been helping nonprofits in the Research Triangle area since 1987. Originally founded as the International Executive Service Corps in 1966 by David Rockefeller, it recruited retired corporate executives to work overseas on assignments in developing countries. A decade later, this concept was reshaped to permit retired executives to use their managerial skills on behalf of American nonprofit agencies. ESC of the Greater Triangle is one of approximately 30 similar agencies that are affiliated with the Executive Service Corps Affiliate Network. This relationship gives us a perspective on the challenges and opportunities facing nonprofits throughout the U.S. and allows us to access programs and services that can help local nonprofits.
