The expectations of consumers are rapidly changing. Consumers now want for-profit businesses to take an ethical stand on important societal and environmental issues. This demand for corporate social responsibility is only going to increase in the coming years.
One way for for-profit businesses to show their commitment to social responsibility is by partnering with nonprofit organizations. These partnerships can have a dramatic impact on both the business and the nonprofit.
For businesses, partnering with nonprofits demonstrates their commitment to social responsibility. This, in turn, can give them a public relations boost. 90% of corporations found that partnering with reputable nonprofit organizations enhances their brand and 89% of businesses believe it leverages their ability to improve the community.
For nonprofits, partnering with for-profit businesses provides them with much-needed resources and exposure. It also helps them to achieve their mission by working with like-minded organizations. When nonprofits and local businesses work together, both benefit.
These are just a few of the MANY for-profit companies that have partnered with the Phoenix Dream Center to help Stop Human Trafficking, End Childhood Hunger and Educate tomorrow’s Leaders.
