Local Business Program

WideAwake.org is proud to offer small businesses a chance to get to know and support the organizations abroad with whom we partner and who are doing a world of good to enhance the quality of life for those in need in their communities.  Our Small Business Program introduces US businesses to these organizations and works with the US businesses to develop innovative strategies for supporting the work of the charitable organizations abroad.  Whether it’s coming up with smart projects to be carried out by our international partners that your business can get behind and contribute to financially, or crafting a public outreach program your business will enact to raise awareness for one of our international partners, your small business can be a part of something big – WideAwake.org will gladly facilitate this unique experience for your small business.  We will work with you to create an endeavor that contributes to the betterment of the lives of people in need in the developing world while benefitting your company.

Benefits of the Small Business Program to Your Company

Participation in the WideAwake.org Small Business Program can, in addition to helping those who need help abroad, benefit your business by:

Building camaraderie within your business.  Rallying around a common cause and doing good helps people come together, and the unity of those involved in a company is undoubtedly good for business.  Our Small Business Program will help build relationships within your company and create a sense of togetherness that will lead to better teamwork and better results. 

Establishing your business’ reputation in your community as one that cares.  Make no mistake; being perceived as a firm that is compassionate and that sacrifices for a worthy cause can be a boon to business.  WideAwake.org will be happy to support you in whatever your small decides upon for supporting our international partners.  For example, we will provide custom fundraising materials and work with you to find ways to highlight your company’s involvement in this worthy and laudable undertaking.

Providing a tax break.  Giving to projects featured on the WideAwake.org website or to those created specifically for your company’s Small Business Program can benefit your firm’s bottom line.  As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, gifts given through WideAwake.org are tax-deductible.
