Corporate donations
Every year we need to raise £1.5m from non-statutory sources to fund essential services for our homeless clients. Making a company donation is a simple way to make a lasting difference for those who need it most.
You might choose to make a general donation to fund our services or you could make a donation to fund an area of our work which is specifically aligned with your CSR giving objectives. For instance:
£12,517 will pay for staff and project running costs for educational, cultural and social Engagement Activities for young homeless people for three months.
£36,913 will fund an Advocacy and Advice Worker who helps newly homeless people to access housing and health services and address the causes of their homelessness (Cost includes NI, pension).
£55,305 will fund our Weekend Service for one year, including staff, running and premises costs.
Our Corporate Partnerships Manager can work with you to identify which area of funding would be most appropriate and mutually beneficial for both organisations.
In return for your donation you will receive transparent reporting on the direct impact of your support and regular updates on the work of the charity. If you wish, you will also be invited to our regular programme of networking events and your support will be acknowledged in our Annual Report, on this website and in our dedicated Corporate Newsletter.
Memorable days
If your company has an important day of the year or an important launch coming up you could choose to sponsor our services (or part of them) on that day. For instance, our cafeteria costs £684 to run for one day.
Sponsorship
Your company might like to sponsor the production of some of our marketing communications tools, such as our Annual Report. This method of support will align your company with a respected charity brand and boost your profile as well as helping our charity to keep non-direct services costs to a minimum.
Cause Related Marketing
Whether you want to increase sales, build customer loyalty or retain or recruit members, linking a brand or product to The Connection at St Martin’s can help you to achieve your marketing goals. We can work together to ensure that any venture is innovative, exciting and produces mutually beneficial results.
