TechSoup Sees Upside for Nonprofits in Downturn

March 22, 2009, San Francisco Chronicle — Social entrepreneur Daniel Ben-Horin, whose multimillion dollar San Francisco business TechSoup Global connects charities to computer companies, sees an upside to the economic downturn.

Ben-Horin, who launched his company in 1987 as stock markets around the world collapsed, believes today's recession will prompt laid-off workers in technology and finance to volunteer more and companies to increase donations.
