Corporate Involvement With HSSV

There are many ways for your company to increase its visibility in the community AND build positive brand presence while helping Humane Society Silicon Valley (HSSV) in its mission to save and enhance lives.

Sponsor an HSSV Event

Each year HSSV hosts a number of popular events. You can choose among various levels of corporate participation. Employees can support our events individually, or via a corporate-sponsored table or team. Annual events include:

• The Fur Ball  (April): our black-tie, dog-friendly gala event; our top fundraiser!
• Imagine the PAWSabilities Breakfast (June): a way to learn about HSSV’s life-saving programs and services and meet our President and staff
• Walk 'N Wag (October): our popular community walk-a-thon fundraiser

Host Your Own Benefit Event

In addition to these well-attended events, planning your own benefit event allows your company the freedom to reflect your culture and directly support HSSV's community programs. We have received donations from fun employee bowling fundraising parties, Friday socials, adoption fairs, company picnics, Halloween candy buy-backs, pet product donation drives, neighborhood theater productions, and more. We are happy to work with you at the level of involvement that you wish!

Promote HSSV in Company Emails, Newsletters and Bulletins
Spreading the word about HSSV's lifesaving work is easy on your intranet’s home or community service page. Just include our logo with a link to our home or donation page, OR a link to our adoptable animals. In addition, you can tout the work that you do with us in your own corporate publications.

The community service of your employees enriches not only your staff but is also duly noted by your customers and prospects. Corporate volunteer days are fun and popular, and we’re happy to acknowledge your corporation’s good work in our newsletter, which enjoys a circulation of over 25,000 readers.

Workplace Giving Campaigns, directly through your company, or United Way or other organizations, is perhaps the easiest way for individuals to regularly support our organization. Let HSSV assist your company in setting up your charitable campaign and spread the word about our mission.

Co-Branding

HSSV's sponsors can place our highly recognizable logo on their products.
Benefits of Partnering with HSSV:

• Benefit from your company’s image associated with Silicon Valley's longest operating animal adoption center.
• Increase your company's exposure in web, print and broadcast media, banner signage and event program acknowledgment.
• Show the community your support for bringing people and pets together to enrich each other's lives.
• Take advantage of the fact that your monetary, service and product donations are tax deductible.

Many companies, small and large, have benefited from their association with HSSV and their participation has, in turn, helped HSSV meet many of our life-saving goals. We look forward to working with your company as well!
