Company Giving

Company Giving: Corporate and business support is essential to St Loye’s Foundation – without you we simply couldn’t do our job! We rely on you to help us to move our disabled and disadvantaged clients into employment. You also give help in many other ways; your time, making introductions, influencing others, (for all these please see Volunteering).

Giving to St Loye’s Foundation is a win-win for us both.

By working together your business will benefit from:

PR and Branding - Raising public awareness, enhancing your reputation, creating press and media coverage, re-enforcing brand values, promoting local/regional links, demonstrating corporate social responsibility.

Sales and Marketing – Increased sales, product placement, reaching new audiences, co-branding, capitalising on local events, cause-related marketing, and increased edge over competitors, recycling and clearance of goods.

Consider these Consumer Facts - 78% adults said they’d be more likely to buy a product associated with a cause they care about, 66% said they would switch brands, 62% said they’d switch retailers to support a cause, 54% claimed they would pay more for a product to support a cause they cared for.

So, what could your company do?

Perhaps a ‘Gift in Kind’ – a piece of equipment, some service we would normally pay for, or even a prize for a raffle – all are always extremely welcome. And, importantly, you can give a monetary gift. A monetary gift, however small, is greatly appreciated and put to very good use.
