How does The Effective Marketing Company get involved in the community?
The Effective Marketing Company are proud to support local charities where we are able.
The Argus Appeal
The Argus Appeal is the charity of the Argus newspaper which in 2007 will be celebrating its 50th year of giving to those most in need in Sussex.
The Argus Appeal pledges to relieve sickness, poverty, hardship and in particular to provide funds for benefits of sorts, in cash and in kind, particularly at Christmas, to lonely and needy old people and underprivileged children.
The Effective Marketing Company are proud to support The Argus Appeal by taking part and raising sponsorship for the South Downs Way Challenge. Find out how you could get involved here or contact Elsa Gillio, 01273 544544
The Business Community Partnership (BCP)
BCP introduces businesses to community groups, voluntary organisations and social enterprises that will benefit most from professional support.
BCP have ten years experience of helping multi-national corporations, family businesses, SMEs and sole traders implement CSR programmes.
Businesses have much more to offer than sponsorships and donations – although they are always welcome. Voluntary organisations value practical support such as use of equipment and facilities, professional services and consultancy, staff secondments and access to business networks and expertise.
The Effective Marketing Company are proud to support BCP through our membership and involvement in projects where our skills and resources are appropriate. Find out how your business could get involved or how your charitable organisation might benefit here or contact Oliver Maxwell, 01273 770775
Young Enterprise
Young Enterprise is the UK’s leading business and enterprise education charity.
Young Enterprise offers a range of programmes, based on the principle of Learning by Doing, which brings volunteers from business into the classroom to work with teachers and students. Some Young Enterprise programmes enable students to work together to run their own real company. Others use games, hands on activities and role play to develop skills and capabilities for business and enterprise.
With more than 5,500 schools and colleges participating in Young Enterprise programmes, Young Enterprise currently reaches more than 320,000 young people a year from primary school right through to university.
The businesses and volunteers that support Young Enterprise take an active role in building a better-motivated, educated and enterprising workforce, at the same time making a real difference to the existing lives and future potential of young people who live and attend school in their area.
The Effective Marketing Company are proud to support Young Enterprise by providing volunteers, find out how your business could get involved here or contact Rebecca Tonks.
