Corporate partnerships – they’re not just for large national charities!

In addition to grants and financial donations, corporates & local businesses can offer you volunteering, expertise, sponsorship, goods donations, awareness raising, and other in-kind support that can make a big difference to organisations of all sizes (especially when other sources of income are stretched).

But sometimes well-intentioned businesses getting involved in your work can cost you more time and resources than it’s worth! And not all corporates will be aligned with your objectives.

How do you make sure your corporate partnerships work for both parties?

Get Grants NEW Identifying Corporate Partnerships MASTERCLASS will build your confidence finding and securing corporate partnerships that help you both reach your objectives.

Led by Corporate Fundraising Expert Julia Worthington (Networking for Fundraisers MASTERCLASS), this Masterclass will give expert advice on having great corporate partnerships – where to find them, identifying the right ones for you, and maximising their potential.

This session will give you practical support to define and articulate what your organisation uniquely has have to offer corporate partners and what they can offer you.

Who is it for?

Get Grants Identifying Corporate Partnerships MASTERCLASS is designed for anyone who works in Fundraising or with responsibilities of fundraising within their role. 

It will be particularly helpful for fundraisers from smaller charitable organisations with limited resources.

What to expect?

During the 1-hour session, this MASTERCLASS will look at:

• Understand the wider context for corporate partnerships and how they sit within a fundraising strategy.
• Look at the evidence for the benefits of corporate partnerships.
• Where to look for prospective corporate partners (LinkedIn, Networking, research, directories, Chamber of Commerce, etc).
• How to align your objectives with corporate partners.
• Define what you need from a partnership and what you have to offer.
• Creating an ‘ideal business profile’, to provide focus for the prospecting research.

This 1-hour webinar-style session will be delivered online via Zoom.

All attendees of the live Masterclass will receive a copy of the session recording. We will also make the recording available to purchase on-demand via our website after the session.
