Nisa’s charity – Making a Difference Locally – is continuing its 10th anniversary celebrations by launching its biggest-ever competition offering prizes of £10,000 each to 10 small charities to help them expand their marketing.
With smaller charities struggling to attract new volunteers, supporters and donations the initiative aims to help overcome this by specifying the prize money must be used to fund an element of marketing.
The funding could be used to finance new websites, a glossy annual report or marketing material such as leaflets and posters to help promote the charity.
Any charity with an annual income of £100,000 or less is eligible to enter the competition.
Nisa’s Head of Charity, Kate Carroll, said: “‘I’m really excited to have launched this competition, it will be life-changing for 10 small charities.
“Through our partnership with the Small Charities Coalition we know the struggles that small charities face and spending vital funds on marketing is low priority, sometimes it’s not even a possibility.
“The £10,000 will go a long way in helping charities communicate and promote their work, helping them to reach more funders and beneficiaries.
“We hope the charities who win the prizes become more sustainable, and we will support them as much as possible to make that happen.”
The giveaway is being widely promoted on social media through both the Making a Difference Locally Twitter and Facebook pages as well as the Nisa Retail Twitter account.
