Corporate Fundraising

Can you help us achieve our Mission?

‘To provide funding and support to children and young adults so their lives may be enriched through the sport they love.’

The Jordan Sinnott Foundation Trust (JSFT) was officially established in September 2020 and received Charity status in November 2021.

Why Choose Us?

The tragic circumstances surrounding Jordan’s death had a profound effect on all those who knew him. Jordan’s family, friends and colleagues wanted to focus on something positive, upholding the values that Jordan had.

We are a small and personable charity, run and managed by our voluntary Board of Trustees and we are all totally committed and passionate about our cause.

All the money we raise (minus some minimum admin costs) goes straight to achieving our mission. You can be assured that this means that donated funds are not spent on large salaries, employee bonus’, property rentals, or any unnecessary expenditure – we make every penny and pound work for us.

Through our grant awarding process we provide funding to individuals, clubs and teams so that they are able to access sport. We have provided funding for a variety of grants from buying kit and equipment, paying subs to providing nourishment at sports camps.

Why Would You Help Us?

Although a good deed is in itself its own reward, there is a lot of buzz around ‘Corporate Social Responsibility’ and the idea that companies should play a positive role in the community and be seen to have a social conscience.

If your business values match ours, then we believe we could have a truly mutual and beneficial partnership.

In an increasingly demanding business environment, companies are looking to obtain a leading edge over their competitors. Supporting a Charity such as the Jordan Sinnott Foundation Trust could give them the uniqueness that corporates strive for. A recent study published in Daily Business Magazine 2018 showed that Millennials are 70% more likely to support a brand that was involved in a charity than the brands that didn’t.

Since then we have held fundraising events such as cricket matches, organised sponsored charity walks and half marathons, had bucket collections at football matches and held a Summer Ball at the Queens Hotel in Leeds. Just Dessert have kindly nominated us to be their charity of the year 2023 and have some exiting fundraisers planned!

How You Can Help Us

Jordan was a unique individual who would have helped anyone who was in need, but we need your help to help those others. As a Board of Trustees have a diverse knowledge, but we will be the first to admit that there are times when we need additional help.

Could Your Company Spare Some Time to Help Us

It is very easy for business to make a one-off donation but we want to build lasting and meaningful relationships with companies who share our passion, our values and who will help us achieve our mission.

Yes, we need financial donations to provide funds for our grants but we also want to work alongside companies who can gift skills, resources or volunteer their time to help us.

Corporate Fundraising

Corporate fundraising is a great way to get all your team members and members of different teams collaborating with people they might not normally meet; it gives staff a chance to socialise and work together in a different context. Staff can learn new skills, or develop existing ones, working on projects which they might not normally get exposed to. Team challenges can be anything that tests the strength, agility, endurance or just the ability to learn a new skill. We welcome our supporters to organise their own challenges, but we also offer spaces on some activities organised by the JST team.

Payroll Giving

Payroll giving is a simple and easy way for your employees to donate straight from their salary, providing us with a regular income to plan and budget. It is a fantastic way to donate as its simple easy and tax efficient. Anyone that is employed or receives a workplace pension is eligible to give a gift each month or week straight from their pay.

Sponsorship

We host a range of fundraising events throughout the year that your business can take part in or even sponsor.
