Become an ambassador
We’re here to help you fundraise and raise your business profile at the same time.
By fundraising for the Pettifor Animal Trust with a fun activity to raise funds, you are making a huge difference to the homeless animals in your community and at the same time growing your business by creating customer loyality.
The resources we provide are designed to support you as you raise sponsorship money for your fundraising activities.
Everything you need to start the fun part of raising funds is contained in our fundraising pack including how the money you raise will make a difference.
How does it work:
As an Ambassador for The Pettifor Animal Trust, you will have a year in which to raise the profile of The Trust and raise funds towards the work we do.
The Ambassador project begins with a planning meeting with our Marketing Consultant and C.E.O. Once a plan is in place we can begin.
Once we have established the ground rules on media publications, we can release our first news release with many more publications and posts to follow.
Regular monthly meetings are advised, to implement the plan and revisit ways in which we can raise profiles and generate funds.
We can provide a plaque to display in your foyer which we ask you to fund (optional).
Fundraising events are a good way to raise funds. However internal activity can also be key, such as adding a cost to your services you provide or simply just displaying a collection tin.
