Support through your company
Payroll Giving
Payroll giving is an HM Revenue & Customs scheme that enable your employees to donate tax free through their pay. For businesses, payroll giving is an easy way to show your charitable credentials and to demonstrate commitment to the causes that your employees care about. If you would like to set up a Payroll Giving scheme please contact People 4 People or the Charities Aid Foundation.
Sponsorship, Charity of the Year and Cause Related Marketing
We have a range of sponsorship opportunities available, including our trademark HARK! vehicles, conferences, events and publications. We tailor each opportunity to meet the needs of the company and offer a package of maximum benefit.
If you think your company should be doing more to benefit others, you could nominate Sound Seekers to receive a grant from your company’s charity committee or to be your Charity of the Year. If you don’t know whether your company has one of these the best departments to speak to are Corporate Social Responsibility or Marketing.
Cause related marketing boost sales, encourages consumer loyalty and can raise the profile of your company. By choosing to affiliate your company or product line with Sound Seekers, for example through donating 10p from every product sold, you will be helping us to raise both vital funds and awareness of our work.
Gift in Kind and Volunteering
Giving money is not the only way your company can help. Perhaps you could choose to support our work in one of the following ways:
- Donating items to raffle or auction.
- Offering free advertising space to help us promote our cause.
- Sharing your skills and expertise which would free up our resources so we can raise more money.
- Providing essential equipment for our projects free of charge .
Employee fundraising
Fancy doing something a bit different at work, or looking for a team building experience? Employee fundraising can improve staff morale, bond teams together, and increase your staff’s commitment to your company. There are lots of ways for employees to get involved from runs to skydives. For some ideas visit Raise money for sound seekers or Events and Challenges or contact us to request a fundraising pack. For an added boost, your company could agree to match whatever is raised.
E-cards
Finally, if you’re looking for an easy way to help others, and boost your green credentials, why not send a Sound Seekers Christmas e-card from your company? We have a range of pre-designed cards available to select or we can work with you to create a bespoke design.
