Each year, Sloan alumni give back to the Greater Boston community by volunteering with Community Consulting Teams of Boston to deliver pro bono services to nonprofits that would be otherwise unable to access much-needed consulting support.  In 2013, ten Sloanies participated in CCT projects, including one for the Massachusetts Horticultural Society (MassHort), which was completed by the first-ever CCT team comprised of Sloan alumni.  Led by Project Sponsor, Tricia Craig ('97) and Project Managers Lia Cavalcante Griffiths ('10) and Mary Barton ('98), the Sloan team, including volunteer consultants Leonard Francis ('09), V Prabhakar ('07), and Rachel Theran ('03), delivered organizational benchmarking and infrastructure recommendations tied together by a financial model to an appreciative MassHort board of directors.  Four Sloanies, including Juan Boulin (’10), Robbie Burnstine (’82), Melinda Lindquist (’84), and Stephen Miller (’74) participated in other CCT projects staffed by teams comprised of MBAs from a mix of top business schools.
