Corporate partnerships play a vital role in enabling Lighthouse to provide essential care and programs for children and young people affected by abuse, trauma, and neglect. By engaging employees and creating business opportunities, partnerships not only support Lighthouse, they also enable employees to feel more connected to their team and part of an organisation that contributes to a meaningful and local cause.

Why get your business involved in our cause?
01. Partnerships with Purpose
Apart from the incredible impact, you will make on the lives of disadvantaged young people, our Corporate Partnerships Program is designed to give back to you, and your organisation, creating a long-term and fulfilling relationship for your organisation, your team, and the young people Lighthouse cares for.
02. Workplace Giving & Fundraising
Workplace Giving is a simple and effective way for your team to regularly donate through automated, pre-tax, payroll deductions.
Or why not sponsor a fun run, host a morning tea or bake-off in the office, and support Lighthouse through workplace fundraising.
03. Team Engagement & Volunteering
Bring your team together away from your office for a collaborative volunteering session that will directly and meaningfully support our young people, carers and Lighthouse homes.
