Sightsavers has built strong relationships with many corporate partners who support us in various ways. Our sight-saving work wouldn’t be possible without their generosity.
In return for such generosity, we offer a range of clear business benefits. These include:
Cause-related marketing (CRM) initiatives are a great way to raise funds while also having a positive impact on sales and increasing brand equity for both partners.
There are plenty of CRM models that are very effective in a retail environment. These include:
Sightsavers has a wide portfolio of sponsorship opportunities available for your company. Our team will help you find the right sponsorship package to add value to your business, gain great publicity and fulfil your CSR objectives.
Create an event such as ‘Bright for Sight’, where you encourage your employees to wear bright colours to work on World Sight Day in October, and give a donation to Sightsavers.
Why not take part in a sporting event? We have places in UK events including marathons, fun runs and cycle rides, or encourage your staff to take part in their own local event.
We can also provide support for your employees’ own ideas: we have fundraising packs, posters, collection boxes, T-shirts and loads more information to help you raise money.
Many companies choose to sponsor a project in one of the countries where we work. Sponsorship packages range from funding a pioneering hospital in India to purchasing vehicles for outreach services in Africa.
Sightsavers is regarded as a leader in international development by our partners. The projects we support make a real difference to the lives of our beneficiaries, which is why many high-profile international and multinational companies choose to support our projects.
Sightsavers is a proud charity partner of Global Impact’s charity.org workplace giving campaign, which is currently open to public sector employees, as well as those at nearly 100 companies nationwide.
Sightsavers can benefit from donations of products or services that directly contribute to our work, including medical equipment, logistical support, media space or financial services.
