About The Session
Stop Guessing. Start Knowing.
You’ve crafted the perfect pitch. Researched the company. Prepared your case for support. But do you actually know what companies want from charity partnerships?
Most fundraisers are guessing. We assume companies care about impact reports, brand alignment, and employee engagement. We lead with what we think matters.
But what if we’re getting it wrong?
This free webinar explores what companies genuinely value in charity partnerships – from the corporate perspective.
What You’ll Learn
Understand what sits behind corporate giving decisions and what “value” really means from a company’s perspective.
You’ll discover:
- How partnership decisions are really made inside companies
- What companies actually prioritise when choosing charity partners
- The commercial realities that shape corporate giving
- What makes partnerships sustainable versus transactional
- How to position your charity to meet corporate expectations
This isn’t about learning to manipulate companies. It’s about genuinely understanding their perspective so you can build partnerships that work for both sides.
Who Should Attend
This webinar is for:
- Corporate fundraising managers and officers
- Anyone building or managing corporate partnerships
- Fundraisers who pitch to companies and want better success rates
- Charity leaders making strategic decisions about corporate income
Whether you’re building your first corporate partnership or managing long-term relationships, this session will help you approach companies with more confidence and clarity.
Why This Matters
The corporate fundraising landscape is worth £4.25 billion annually in the UK. Companies have money to give.
Most corporate fundraising advice comes from other fundraisers. It’s helpful, but it’s one-sided. We know what we think companies want. We rarely hear directly from the companies themselves.
This webinar closes that gap.
By understanding the corporate perspective – the pressures they face, the priorities they balance, the conversations that happen before they say yes or no – you can build stronger pitches, more sustainable partnerships, and relationships that actually last.
