Sponsor an event

Sponsor a sport event or a local team. It is possible to hold a car wash, to organize a spaghetti dinner or some sales. You can choose whether to sponsor, to host or to lend hand at the event , in any way, it will be a really huge help and a contribution into the charity

Donate products and services

Volunteer with your employees

All charities depend on volunteers. It will be a good example, if you volunteer alongside your employees. Invite your workers to join you. If you have a team, it will be nice to have the same kind of clothes, caps or ties while you volunteer. Be an example for your team.
