Corporate giving

Every year, hundreds of people give their time as volunteer mentors on our various programmes. But there is an equally important group of people without whom none of our work would be possible: the individuals, companies and grant-making bodies who contribute on a regular or one-off basis throughout the year. We are so grateful for everyone who plays their part in the Citywise family.

Corporate giving

Does your company have a corporate giving scheme? In many companies employees can nominate charities of their choice to receive one-off grants or match funding. Could you put us forward for support from your workplace? Get in touch! funding@citywise.org 

Citywise is currently registered with the following match funding providers. Have a look and see if your company is listed!

Corporate volunteering

Many companies release their employees to volunteer at charities at various times during the year. Recently we have enjoyed the support of colleagues from an M&S store in Manchester, who helped us overhaul our community garden!

If you would be interested in arranging a corporate volunteering day with Citywise, please get in touch: funding@citywise.org Packages begin from £150 per person.

 

 

Support In Kind

We are also very excited to announce that as part of our 25th anniversary campaign in 2019, we received over £10,000 of “in kind” donations! This has come in the form of donated goods and services from local companies in Manchester and Glasgow:
 
  • At the beginning of the year, O Street design studio in Glasgow very kindly gave our logo an overhaul…
  • meanwhile Rachel Andrews Interior Design refreshed the look of our Manchester Citywise Centre…
  • Vinci Construction very kindly supplied paint and decorators to make it a reality…
  • and finally, Access2Learn and Remtek Systems both contributed some new furniture!
