OUR PARTNERS MAKE A WORLD OF DIFFERENCE!
Together, we can inspire support for humanitarian and environmental causes worldwide and achieve a positive, long-term impact. We welcome a diverse array of partnerships and are flexible to honor your unique mission and values. Alternative Gifts International (AGI) works with businesses of all sizes to engage their employees and customers, while impacting communities around the globe.
A PARTNERSHIP WITH AGI CAN LEAD TO:
- Increased awareness for your brand: Our community of supporters will see which businesses have chosen to partner with us to further our mission--whether displayed on a page in our annual "Gifts Inspiring Change" catalog, our website, or articles and social media posts featuring the impact your company has had.
- Additional sales and new customers: According to the 2013 Cone Communications Impact Study, 89% of Americans are likely to switch brands to one associated with a cause, and 88% wants to hear how companies are supporting social and environmental issues.
- Enhanced image: Consumers notice when businesses participate in helping those in need! You can share your support on your website as well as at on-site locations to display your principles and priorities to staff, customers, suppliers, potential customers, etc.
- Engaged and inspired employees and customers: Give your employees a role in choosing which Cause(s) to support from our selection, and boost morale and engagement. We can also provide opportunities for employees to have meaningful volunteer experiences.
- Tax-deductions for corporate, client, and employee gifts: An AGI gift, gift card, or e-gift card is a wonderful way to reward and motivate clients and employees. You can implement a gift program to motivate new hires, as work anniversary gifts, or as prosocial bonuses for excellent work. You can also use our gifts to show appreciation to clients, build connections, celebrate holidays, or thank people who refer clients. Another way to use AGI gifts is to display your principles and priorities to business partners, or to reward valuable partners. Contact us about how we can personalize gifts for your business!
