Corporate fundraising
Our corporate partners provide a vital source of income, but more than that they have fun too.
Our corporate partnerships make a real difference to the lives of local children and their families. We know that in return their involvement with us makes a positive impact on their business. Staff motivation, retention and team building as well as demonstrating a commitment to social responsibility are just some of these benefits.
Every business is different and we will work with you to build a mutually beneficial partnership that supports our work, whilst meeting your objectives.
Please get in touch with us today to find out how your company can make a lifetime of difference to families in desperate need of our support. Call 01628 822777 or email fundraising@alexanderdevine.org
