Corporate Support
The services Deafblind
Scotland provide are a lifeline for many deafblind people, reducing
overwhelming feelings of isolation, frustration and depression. You
can help us make a difference.
Your company can help in the following ways:
Charity Of The Year & Corporate
Partnership
Why not make
Deafblind Scotland your Charity of the Year and reap the benefits?
Adopting us could :
* raise your profile and generate some positive PR
* strengthen staff relationships and focus your fundraising
efforts
* make it easier for you to communicate with existing and
potential dual sensory impaired customers
* help you make a difference to the lives of deafblind
adults
Alternatively, you could become a corporate partner for a shorter
or longer period of time. Contact the Fundraising Department for
more details on 0141 777 6111.
Payroll Giving
Establishing
payroll giving has wide-ranging benefits. Not only are you more
likely to attract and retain staff, it's a great way of becoming
more socially responsible.
Small and medium sized companies that sign up to Payroll Giving
before December 2006 can get a Government grant of up to £500.
What's more the first £10 of each employee's monthly donations will
be matched £ for £ for a six month period until March 2007.
All the organisation needs to do is to sign up with a Payroll
Giving Agency (PGA) who will collect and distribute the donations
on your behalf. Contact us for more details about setting-up a
scheme and receiving a grant.

help us simply by making a donation, and that doesn't only mean
financial. We would also welcome :
* Gifts in kind
* Secondments
* Shares
