Some executives do philanthropic work out of duty. CACI“™s CEO Paul Cofoni does it out of passion. In June 2008, Cofoni underwent double bypass surgery. Several months later, barely back on the job, Cofoni was asked by the American Heart Association to chair an upcoming event: Start! Heart Walk 2009. It was an offer Cofoni couldn“™t refuse. “Having been the beneficiary of so much research sponsored by the American Heart Association, it was very easy for me to say, “˜This is a great way to help others.“™“ Cofoni recently offered ExecutiveBiz an update on those efforts.
