Fundraise as a business

By choosing to fundraise for Kelly’s Heroes you are enabling your business to play a meaningful role in supporting mental health and emotional wellbeing across your workforce and their families.

You are choosing to help fund vital mental health education, suicide prevention training, and direct support for individuals and families affected by poor mental health or loss, whilst raising awareness.

We work with many businesses as their sponsored charity partner or nominated Charity partner of the year. These bring a range of benefits in delivering structured, well-managed fundraising initiatives that align with organisational values, wellbeing strategies, and social responsibility objectives.

Why Partner with Kelly’s Heroes?

By fundraising for Kelly’s Heroes, your organisation will:

• Support the delivery of mental health education and suicide prevention programmes

• Contribute to services supporting individuals and families at times of need

• Help raise awareness and reduce stigma around mental health

• Demonstrate a clear commitment to wellbeing, social value, and community impact

Our work aligns closely with organisational wellbeing frameworks, ESG objectives, and corporate social responsibility priorities.

Fundraising Opportunities

We support a wide range of professional fundraising activities, tailored to suit your organisation’s size, structure, and objectives. These may include:

• Company-wide step or movement challenge: Employees commit to a daily or weekly movement target, with individuals or teams raising sponsorship or supported through matched company donations.
• Sponsored endurance or fitness events: Teams take part in walks, runs, cycles, or endurance challenges, either independently or as part of organised events, to raise funds while promoting physical wellbeing.
• Matched-giving fundraising campaigns: Employee fundraising totals are matched by the organisation, increasing impact and demonstrating senior leadership commitment to the cause.
• Mental health awareness days or weeks: Internal awareness campaigns combined with fundraising activity, guest speakers, or wellbeing resources to support open conversations around mental health.
• Payroll giving or donation drives: Employees opt to donate a small regular amount through payroll, creating sustained, long-term support for Kelly’s Heroes.
• Team or departmental competitions: Friendly fundraising competitions between departments, sites, or regions, with prizes or recognition for participation and impact.
• Wellbeing-focused workshops or events: Fundraising linked to wellbeing sessions, such as resilience workshops, mindfulness sessions, or wellbeing talks.

All fundraising activities can be planned with inclusivity, safeguarding, and reputational considerations in mind.
