Eggcup Business Partnership Programme

No matter how small or large your business is, by joining us you can:

  • Make a real difference locally – help people in our community when they need it most.
  • Be part of positive change – contribute to projects that also protect our environment and tackle climate change.
  • Enjoy tax benefits – charitable donations can reduce your corporation tax.
  • Feel proud of your impact – know your support creates lasting change.

Reducing Food Waste and Tackling Food Poverty. Good for business, good for our community and good for the planet!

In return Eggcup will:
  • Mention and thank you on our social media.
  • List your business on our website as our business supporter.
  • Issue you with a annual “Thank You” certificate – a token of our gratitude for you to display in your business.
  • Get involved – you & your staff are welcome to visit and possibly get involved in operations for a day!

How to get started? Simply contact Jane at admin@eggcup.org to register your interest and have a chat about how you’re able to help – we’re looking forward to hearing from you!

What will your money go towards?

Supporting ongoing operations, a new van, stock, overheads… the list of costs is endless. If you want to support something specific with your money, please let us know, otherwise it will contribute to our “unrestricted funds” which enables us to put it to best use.

Reduce your Tax

Charitable donations can be classed as a business expense, and so are taken off before your corporation tax is calculated, leaving you with a lower tax bill, and us with more money! Wins all round !

Can I see my money at work?

Absolutely! By supporting a local charity it is much easier to see how your money is benefiting people. We would love you to come and visit us and see how we are spending your money. Just drop us a line and we’ll arrange it.
