Pictured below is 14 year old Rosie G, a keen rower. Last summer, she took the opportunity to fundraise to help the GB Athletes support good causes and get to meet and row with the GB Rowers free of charge. Her target of £230 was reached and not only did she get to row for free, it helped fund two places on these Athlete Experiences Day worth £75 each to be provided free to good causes to auction off.
Two auctions saw those two places generate
£510 for Save The Children
£140 for Providence Row
Not only demonstrating how every auction is different, it crucially highlights the social value that can be achieved working with the GB Athletes to increase your planned donations to good causes.
This is the social impact 14 year old Rosie G achieved:
· £230 raised generated...
· £650 received by good causes (they keep 100% of this).
· Charity received 282% of every £1 donated.
Charities ALWAYS want free places on these days , and usually in 2s and 3s, we are
offering the same opportunity Rosie grabbed to any Philanthropist or Company.
Simply by creating a fund at your end that you fully control, you can support one charity or support all that request free places to auction, for every £300 in Athlete Experience Days activated by charity, your company gets £100 in Athlete Credits to use on engagements such as.
Client / Colleague Athlete Experience Days www.legacy300.com/corporates
Social Experiences for Away Days / Company Family days www.legacy300.com/mtm
(Fundraising for good causes on these days is also available through their Beat the Medallist challenges).
Athlete Personal Appearances
Speaking Engagements
Athlete Sponsorship.
Or donate further places to good causes.
More importantly, this partnership will ensure that good causes receive way more than the 100% of your donations – its what we have been doing over 13 years on a 1,000+ different occasions and how the GB Athletes involved have raised over £658K.
As Rosie G, has amply demonstrated that this works I would be delighted to hear from any Social Impact Team / Social Value Officer and Philanthropist for their views on this..
