Business Partnerships
We help a wide range of businesses to engage with local charities and support the voluntary sector in their area. Whether you're a small local business or a multi-national corporate, we'll work with you to understand your organisation's objectives, engage and motivate your employees and make a positive impact on your community.
Starting from just £96 a year per group, we offer a range of options to help you support local charities in your area. To get involved or for more information, please contact us at help@localgiving.org or on 0300 111 2340.
Sponsor a charity
Help one or more local charities to raise funds and awareness online by sponsoring their annual Localgiving membership. We'll work with you to identify suitable charities in your area or, alternatively, arrange sponsorship for any eligible charities you may already be working with.
Businesses currently sponsoring local charities via Localgiving include intu Group, Hammerson plc and Winckworth Sherwood.
Once you have selected your groups, simply choose the level of support you would like to provide from the following options:
Tier 1 - £96 per group
Sponsor a charity to become a member of Localgiving for just £96 a year. Read more about the benefits of Localgiving membership for charities here.
Tier 2 - £375 per group
In addition to providing a year's Localgiving membership, help your chosen groups to attract new donors and raise more funding by matching £250 worth of donations made to their cause.
Tier 3 - £1,250 per group
Maximise your impact with the addition of a direct donation to your chosen causes. The charities you support will each receive:
- A year's Localgiving membership
- A £500 match fund
- A one-off direct gift of £500
“Localgiving is a fantastic charity dedicated to enabling and promoting small and medium charities addressing many issues of concern in communities today. Our intu Chairman’s annual Corporate Responsibility Prizes reward community partnerships forged by our shopping centre teams and our collaborative approach is underlined by our gift of Localgiving membership in addition to a cash prize to the charities showcased by these partnerships.”
- Alexander Nicholl, Corporate Responsibility Director, intu Group
Sponsor a campaign
Each year, through our Incentivised Giving Programme, we run a calendar of national fundraising campaigns that give local charities the tools and support they need to raise money online.
By sponsoring a campaign, your business can help hundreds of local charities across the UK to develop practical fundraising experience and raise much needed funding for their cause.
In addition, we will help you to increase your brand's profile amongst thousands of individual fundraisers and donors.
Previous campaign sponsors include Experian, Nutmeg and Making a Difference Locally.
