Benefits for you
Supporting a good cause like the Butterfly Trust brings many benefits to a business or community group. Projecting a positive image of your organisation is important for your brand, demonstrating you are trustworthy, ethical, and supportive of the community. It can help attract top talent to your staff pool and enhance relations with your current employees.
Giving your staff the opportunity to have time away from the daily routine of their roles to participate in voluntary, fundraising, or awareness activities can be motivating and it shows you care about causes that may be close to them and their family, It also gives them the opportunity to bond as a team and focus on shared goals.
Supporting a charity can provide you with networking opportunities and give you the chance to link with a charity partner that shares similar goals to your own business. It can provide a new network of customers who see your business in a positive light.
