Business and ETM: a win–win situation!
Support ETM through your business
How can you support ETM?
Any company can join ETM to help disadvantaged children
As a company, you have several ways of contributing to ETM’s work. You can sponsor one of our many projects and link your support to the achievement of concrete objectives in a programme country.
ETM sponsorship is another way to foster your corporate culture and involve your employees in the lives of children in one or more of the communities where ETM is active.
Alternatively, could the products or services offered by your company be useful to ETM?
What will ETM do for you?
First and foremost, ETM is a professional partner. Our many years of experience and our recognised operational expertise are the best guarantee that, together, we will achieve your objectives to a high standard, both through our work in the North and through our projects in the Global South.
That way, you can be sure of
-
Obtaining a real return on your investment in a better world.
-
Receiving clear reports and information on the results achieved.
But ETM can also play an essential role in supporting your communication, both internal and external. ETM communicates actively and is familiar with the media world. New partnerships quickly find their own communication channels to reach volunteers and our many sponsors. Together we will look at how to make our cooperation effective.
What not to expect?
We do not want to raise false hopes – not among our partner companies, nor among our sponsors. That is why ETM works within a well-established ethical and legal framework, which sets out the possible forms of cooperation.
This means, among other things, that:
-
ETM’s communication channels cannot be used for direct sales or advertising. Consequently, ETM cannot guarantee a measurable increase in turnover.
-
We agree clearly on what can and cannot be done in terms of communication in our joint project. For ETM as for you, protecting brand image matters!
An example: all you need to do is give ETM a share of the proceeds of a commercial initiative, a promotional or information campaign, or a relationship-building activity with your suppliers or customers. You do not need to be a multinational to make a significant contribution to our work! Companies that provide financial support or a service to ETM thereby contribute significantly to its smooth running.
For companies, donations can amount to up to €500,000 per year, with a maximum of 5% of taxable profit.
