We can offer our charity partner a range of pro-bono support, including:

Business development planning
Reviewing your fundraising strategy or helping you to write a new one
Income generation activity across different types of fundraising, such as writing bids to trusts & foundations or approaching corporate prospects

We will also hold in-office fundraising activity, with previous examples including sweepstakes, raffles and staff collections.
Hear from Women Acting in Today's Society, our current Charity of the Year:
“Our partnership with Oaks has had a lasting impact on WAITS and the women we support. The funding applications submitted by their team have provided the means to decorate and furnish a new refuge. The gifts we received at Christmas, as well as donations throughout the year, have helped our beneficiaries feel cared for and supported during a difficult time in their lives.
As well as support with fundraising, we have received additional advice with our marketing and communications. Social media videos and articles shared by the Oaks team have enabled WAITS to reach a wider audience and get our story out there."
- Marcia Lewinson, CEO at Women Acting in Today's Society
