Research secondary data and write a PowerPoint report.
Your client is a community foundation, which provides funding to small, local, not-forprofit organizations. With an endowment of $1 million, the foundation is looking for sound investments to grow the possible funds available to support the community. Choose any publicly traded company that interests you, and research whether this company would be a worthy investment for some of the foundation's endowment funds. Your purpose is to identify whether the company is a good choice-you do not need to give a positive recommendation.

To formulate your argument, you might research some of the following about your company of choice:
• Background Information: What does your client need to know about the company?

• Mission and Vision: Does the company align with the foundation's mission?

• Stock Trend and Analysts' Recommendations: Is this a sound investment likely to give positive returns?

• Growth Trends: What do you know about the company's revenue and profits? What plans (e.g., for new products and new locations) might be relevant to the foundation?

• Management: Does the company have a strong, stable management team capable of running the company well in the future?

• Current News: What news items about the company might be relevant to the decision?

Prepare a PowerPoint report to the foundation's board of directors. Include a title page, executive summary, table of contents, several pages of findings, and a summary.
