Talk Details
Every year, charities pour time, energy, and resources into Charity of the Year applications, often with unclear criteria, minimal feedback, and slim chances of success.
So how do you know when it’s worth it? And how do you find corporate partners that truly align with your mission, not just the ones with the biggest names?
This Q&A will cut through the noise and tackle the realities of corporate partnerships, from spotting red flags in applications to focusing on strategic, winnable opportunities that actually drive impact.
Bring your questions, frustrations, and your best corporate horror stories. It’s time to have a real conversation about what works, what doesn’t, and how we as a sector are responsible for changing the system.
Key learnings from this session:
This is an interactive Q&A, so bring your questions, challenges, and experiences, we’ll tackle what matters most to you.
