When it comes to donating to charity, many people think that it’s just a personal thing – something that they do to help others in their community. However, what most people don’t realise is that donating to charity can also be good for businesses. In fact, there are a few reasons why businesses should donate to charity and tax benefits are only one of them.
Businesses can use their donations to create goodwill with customers and potential customers. This happens when businesses demonstrate that they are actively giving back to the community that supports them. When consumers see a business being charitable, they are likely to associate the company with positive qualities such as kindness and generosity. This can lead to new customers, and an even deeper connection with existing customers.
Additionally, businesses can also use sponsorships to recruit new employees and retain current ones. Case studies show that companies with Human Resource programs based around supporting charities and Not-For-Profit organisations experience a high level of staff retention.
Lastly, businesses should donate to charity because it can help them build relationships with other organisations. Our sponsors have seen this benefit as a result of our many collaborative events. Some are working together to this day.
Heroes with Ability offer sports activity programs for people in Australia with physical &/or intellectual disabilities. These programs are delivered without charge to the participants.
So, if you're looking for ways to improve your relationship with the community or want to start attracting new customers, employees and/or partners, consider becoming a donor or a sponsor of Heroes With Ability. It's a great way to make a difference in the world!
