1. Payroll giving
|
It’s easy to give through your salary each month. Donations are deducted before tax so for example, a donation of £10 per month costs the basic rate tax payer £8.00 (the taxman pays the rest!) Payroll giving can be anything from £1 upwards and is a way of regularly giving to charity and being tax efficient.

year adoption
|
Becoming a charity partner is a great way to contribute to a good cause while getting your work colleagues together to have some fun. Hundreds of businesses have donated valuable skills, time and money to the Noah’s Ark Charity over the years and we appreciate every penny they have raised. Why not nominate us as your charity of the year or maybe offer your services for free? If you’d like to find out more about what you can do to become a charity partner just let us know. We have a big challenge to raise over £1million in 2018 and our small team would love the opportunity to chat with you about how you could make a difference.

|
Offering your professional services can be a brilliant way to help promote your business and help support the charity. Whether it’s a free venue for one of our events, legal support, advertising space or a raffle prize, we’d love to hear from you. Please contact the fundraising team for a chat.

There are both big and small levels for sponsorship within the hospital with branding and naming opportunities too. If you are interested in sponsoring our events, newsletter or other supporter mailings we’d also love to hear from you.

7. Taking part in
our events
|
Getting teams together to take part in our events is a great way to work together towards a fundraising target, as well as getting out in to the fresh air and supporting your local children’s hospital charity. We have free gold places in the Newport marathon and the Cardiff and Swansea half marathons in 2018 so why not pull a team of colleagues together and sign up.

9. Emergency
parent packs
|
Donating funds towards our emergency parent packs or even putting some together as a team would mean that you are making a direct difference to families when they need it most. Our packs provide practical essentials for parents so that when they are admitted with their child in an emergency, they can focus on what’s important.
|
10. Raising
awareness
|
Promoting our Noah’s Ark Charity events as well as the latest news from the Ark is a great way of helping us to raise awareness. It could be something as simple as sharing our social media posts, placing a guest blog from the charity on your company website or putting up our event posters around your place of work.
|
11. On-pack or
trade promotion
|
Many customers would prefer to buy a product associated with a charity rather than one that isn’t. A cause-related marketing initiative could be in the form of in-store merchandising, on-pack promotions or trade promotions. These are all great ways to show your customers your support for the Noah’s Ark Children’s Hospital Charity.
|
12. Recycling
|
Your old clothes will make us very happy as we turn them into cash to fund vital life-saving equipment at our national children’s hospital. As well as dropping off bags to one of our textile banks at Tesco stores, we can arrange a special collection if your company has a recycling drive.
