Corporate partnerships and sponsorships
Helping you find the right partners to take you to the next level
When it comes to corporate partnerships, many nonprofits and foundations don’t know where to start. Others consider the barriers to entry too high, or may not even consider corporations as viable supporters of their work.
But when it comes to supercharging capital campaigns, enabling events, or helping to get needed facilities renovated or built, corporate partnerships that tap into marketing budgets rather than philanthropic ones can provide game-changing assistance.
We can help you hone your message and find corporate partners that align with your core values and mission, and whose partnership can help meet common goals in furtherance of your shared values. Corporate partnerships can also lead to sources of volunteers, donors, and resources that might not otherwise come into your organization’s orbit.
