Barnardos > How to Help > Corporate Philanthropy
Your company can also help us by making a simple financial donation. This can be allocated towards one area of our work (e.g. education) or to a particular welfare project. Barnardos can offer a range of benefits that will recognise your contribution. This is also a tax effective way of supporting the community in which you live and work.
The donation doesn't necessarily have to be financial. It could include:
- Gifts in kind (products or services)
- Employee time
- Access to a company resource
- Shares (this is a very tax efficient way to make a charitable donation).
Why Barnardos?
- Barnardos is independent. It is not a government or church agency
- Barnardos is transparent, entrepreneurial and innovative
- Barnardos understands how to blend philanthropic needs and commercial realities for mutual benefit
- Barnardos' research indicates that approximately 89% of people in Australia support a partnership between business and a cause. 80% would support a company and product that supported a cause like Barnardos and 67% would be willing to switch brands
- Barnardos can achieve sustainable, cost effective long-term partnerships that deliver results
- Recent studies have shown over 90,000 reported cases of child abuse and 630,000 children living in poverty. For Barnardos to continue to help the thousands of children and families who turn to them each year, bound by the ugliness of poverty, homelessness, abuse and isolation, they must look at more innovative ways of raising funds that will help them change lives
- Put simply, an investment with Barnardos is an investment in the future. An association that will capture the elusive opportunity of connecting one to one. This is truly the ultimate WIN-WIN partnership strategy, one that creates infinite opportunities and exponential returns.
