Corporate Support & Matching Gifts
Corporate Opportunities
Expectations of companies' philanthropic and social roles are at an all-time high: 83% say companies have a responsibility to help support causes, and 92% acknowledge they have a more positive image of a company that supports a cause they care about. Few, if any, causes have broader or more compelling appeal than coming to the aid of abused and neglected children.
CASA Kane County is an effective, practical way to bring brighter futures to children while meeting your corporate goals. Our mission is very compelling to our partners' existing customers, potential customers, and employees. With more than 200 CASA volunteers and a strong presence throughout the county, we are well positioned to be a strong, highly visible partner in the communities where you do business. Our network of volunteers and supporters provides a strong base for launching joint efforts.
Our focus on understanding our partners' business goals—and on developing creative ideas with measurable, bottom-line results—ensures programs that not only help our nation's most vulnerable children but also help our partners achieve their objectives.
As a volunteer-driven organization, CASA Kane County is one of the most efficient ways to make a major difference in the lives of children and ultimately improve the communities in which your employees live and work.
Sponsorship
Sponsorship of CASA Kane County provides an opportunity to bring positive change to the lives of vulnerable children while providing your company with numerous benefits. These include reaching new target audiences, increasing stakeholder loyalty, and making a social impact in the communities where you do business. More than 93% of employees feel it is important for their company to give them opportunities to become involved in causes. (Cone Cause Evolution Study, 2007)
Matching Gifts
Participating in a matching gift program makes your donation go farther. Many companies encourage employees to donate to their favorite charities by matching their contributions, in some cases dollar-for-dollar or more. Some companies may match gifts made by retirees or spouses of employees.
