Corporate Sponsorship
You could make a contribution towards the costs of delivery vehicles, our running costs, or other capital items which support our operation. Alternatively, you could raise valuable funds by organising a corporate day and asking your suppliers to be involved by sponsoring the event.
Charity of the Year
By choosing FareShare Midlands as your Charity of the Year you can encourage staff, customers and suppliers to work together to support our work. From team building and payroll giving to staff volunteering, we’ll help you meet your employee engagement and CSR objectives. The experience will be fun and interactive and will help us to feed thousands of vulnerable people every day.
Cause-Related Partnership
This can be a fantastic way to align your products and services with our charity. It can drive sales, reach new audiences and help to raise awareness of the issue of food poverty in our community.
Employee Fundraising
Whether it’s running a marathon, holding a bake sale or taking part in a sponsored challenge, every penny you raise will help us to save more food from going to waste and get it onto the plates of vulnerable people. There are so many ways to fundraise in the workplace … from quiz nights to auctions, raffles to clothes swaps, discos to dress down days, or holding your own eco-friendly challenge!
Event Fundraising
This can include anything from a quiz to a ball. Events can also include challenges, from zip wiring to overseas treks. The possibilities are endless and it's a great way to get your staff, customers and suppliers involved.
Give Directly From Salary
Payroll Giving, or Give As You Earn as it is sometimes known, is a simple way to make regular tax free donations to FareShare Midlands. Just £5 per month could provide enough food for 240 meals over a year.
Employee Volunteering
We welcome teams of corporate volunteers to help us to sort, pack food, and deliver it to frontline charities feeding people in need across the region.
