Large Companies Fundraising for International Charities
Many large companies don’t know how to begin fundraising on an international scale and are desperate to be provided with fundraising ideas. There are a number of possible ways to take part in fundraising, either through donating to an existing organisation or seeking out ways of doing your own fundraising. Whichever path you choose, you should spend a lot of time researching the type of fundraising you want to do and the aims you have for it.
You can think on a small scale and get employees involved with fundraising and then donate that cash to a larger international charity organisation or you can apply for fundraising for your own means. If you choose to try to raise funds locally for an international cause, try getting the media involved. This will help you get plenty of attention and should help your cash contributions.
You can also join forces with other local businesses to get a real sense of one community working for another. The key is to be 100% committed, set yourself achievable goals, stay focused and get as many people as possible supporting your fundraising effort. Remember there are often tax breaks for large organisations when it comes to fundraising also, so you're not only helping yourself,but also others in the process.
