Getting creative
An easy way to for corporates to support the Gifts for Kids Appeal is to setup a co-branded toy donation page (through Simply Giving) and call on their employees to donate toys online.
One company Hall & Hart took this a step further and shared this with their external supporters and suppliers, asking them to get behind Barnardos Gifts for Kids Christmas Appeal. It was their way of paying it forward and supporting children and families who will benefit most.
Neill Evans, Director and Chairman at Hall & Hart shares below how they achieved this.
“The process had to be simple, easy to maintain, and rewarding. To encourage and engage our network we created a campaign where people could help. We provided regular email updates highlighting progress towards the target in order to encourage further donations.
It has been a huge success with our staff, clients, suppliers and trades and now they very kindly donate to the Barnardos Gifts for Kids appeal each year.”
Here’s what one of Hall & Hart’s suppliers had to say:
“It was such a simple process and took less than a few minutes to donate, we look forward to taking part again for many years to come!”
