Why Partner With Cresco?
Partner With Purpose
By supporting Cresco, your organisation can help us reach those people in need. Partnership isn't just simply putting a logo next to ours. We want to work with organisations that believe in what we're trying to achieve and want to become part of the change.
At The Cresco Foundation, we believe meaningful change happens when people and organisations work together. By partnering with Cresco, your business can help us build better mental health, and prevent substance misuse in arming, agricultural, equestrian and veterinary communities. Whether you're a small rural business, an agricultural organisation or a national company, we want to build partnerships that are meaningful, responsible and capable of making a genuine difference.
Ways We Can Work Together
Every organisation is different, so our partnerships don't need to follow a one-size-fits-all approach.
You could support Cresco through:
- Choosing Cresco as your Charity of the Year
- Corporate donations
- Employee fundraising
- Sponsoring a Cresco project, campaign or event
- Payroll giving
- Cause-related marketing
- Donating goods, equipment or services
- Providing professional expertise
- Supporting awareness and educational campaigns
- Creating a bespoke partnership with us
We're particularly excited to work with organisations connected to agriculture, farming, equestrian sport, veterinary services and rural life, but you don't have to be part of the agricultural world to stand alongside it.
More Than Money
Supporting Cresco doesn't always have to mean writing a cheque. Sometimes the resources, skills and services a business can provide can be just as valuable. As Cresco grows, we may need equipment and resources to help us attend agricultural shows, equestrian events and community days, deliver outreach and create fundraising events of our own.
Your business could help by donating, providing or sponsoring things such as show-jumping fences and branded jumps, marquees and gazebos, event equipment, signage and banners, printing, merchandise, vehicles or transport, venues, photography and videography, professional services, or even something completely different. For example, an equestrian company might sponsor a Cresco show jump that can appear at events, while an agricultural business might help provide equipment for a rural fundraising day. A printing company could produce our awareness materials, or another organisation might offer its expertise behind the scenes. If your business has something you think could help Cresco, we'd love to hear about it. Sometimes the most valuable partnerships start with a simple “We can help with that.”
Partnerships That Mean Something
We want our corporate relationships to go beyond fundraising. The right partnership can help start conversations in places we might otherwise struggle to reach, challenge stigma surrounding mental health and addiction, and put information and support directly in front of the people who need it. That might mean working together at an agricultural show, supporting a suicide prevention campaign, helping us develop resources, getting your employees involved in fundraising or supporting the development of one of Cresco's services. Together, we can create something that works for your organisation while making a meaningful contribution to rural communities.
Grow With Us
Cresco is at the beginning of its journey, and we're building something we hope will grow alongside the communities we serve. For our early corporate partners, that creates an opportunity to be part of that journey from the beginning, helping us develop, reach more people and build sustainable support for the future. We want to create long-term relationships with organisations that share our belief that nobody should feel they have to struggle alone simply because of where they live or the community they work in.
Corporate Partnerships Coming Soon
We're currently developing our corporate partnership programme and the different ways businesses and organisations will be able to support Cresco. More information, including partnership opportunities and how to work with us, will be available here soon. If your organisation is interested in becoming an early supporter of The Cresco Foundation, we'd still love to hear from you.
