Investment indexes with a socially responsible tone abound, but it appears there is always room for more.

Study Highlights Leaders in Corporate Education Initiatives
Submitted by Danielle on Mon, 2007-05-07 20:56. SRINew white paper explores how companies can develop a strategic plan that goes beyond the checkbook.
Referencing Bill Gates’ designation of American high schools as “obsolete” during the 2005 National Education Summit on the first page of their new white paper “Best in Class: How Top Corporations Can Help Transform Public Education,” the FSG Social Impact Advisors begin their analysis of the U.S. education system with statistics of an equally dire outlook.

It also includes case studies of companies that have already begun education initiatives.
