Corporate Partnerships
Would your organisation like to do something to make a real difference to those experiencing homelessness? We would love to have your support - there are so many ways that you can help.
Small charity, high impact
We are a small charity, getting a lot done. We don’t own a night shelter ourselves, we have built a partnership with 30 or so South London churches to provide shelter to the homeless.
Bringing together their church halls and volunteers from their congregations, with our fundraising, organisation, partnerships, volunteers, and networks, allows us, as a team, to punch far above our weight.
“It’s about having the opportunity to meet with people that you might not have done otherwise – and to learn about the very human stories behind homelessness.
— Robes corporate partner volunteer
Ways that you can help
Working Together
We would love for you to contribute in any way that would suit you. Below are some of the things that we need support with. Please email to find out more, or discuss other ways you can help.
Fundraising: Bring your staff together over a good cause. Either take part in our SleepOut, or create your own event. See some ideas below.
Sponsor a staff member: Could you fund or part-fund the salary for one of our vital Advice Workers, or the Shelter Manager, helping make a significant impact to our homeless guests?
Storage: Do you have space in Southwark or Lambeth to store our shelter equipment? If not, consider contributing towards storage costs.
Laundry: With around 30 venues and many guests, that’s a lot of laundry. Can you help pay for these costs, or maybe you could provide the service?
Food: We provide a nutritious hot evening meal and cooked breakfast for our guests every day during our shelter season. Could you help fill our homeless guests bellies?
Material goods: Could you help with a donation of toiletries, or funds towards clothing or setting up a new home?
Technology: We are always in need of phones and tablets to help our guests keep in touch with their support network, look for work, and keep on top of their appointments.
Volunteer: your team might like to spend some time at our day service Wednesday Club, preparing a meal for our guests. To find out more email us.
Specialist skills: does your business have specialist skills that could help Robes?
Of course if you’d like to make a simple donation or sponsor Robes, that too can make all the difference to our work.
