Cause-related marketing

Build trust and awareness.

Aligning with Guide Dogs through a cause-related marketing campaign can increase brand awareness, enhance customer relationships, and build trust in your brand.

A recent Edelman consumer survey said 67% of buyers will purchase from a brand because of their social stance.

Make your workplace accessible and inclusive

Lead the way as an accessible and inclusive organisation.

We can help our corporate partners comply with Australian Disability Access Regulations as well as go beyond industry standards and demonstrate sector leadership.

These regulations ensure that our community is safe and accessible for people of all abilities, including people with low vision or blindness.

We can also help you develop and adapt your products and services to be more accessible and inclusive.

Pro bono donations

Your products and services can change someone’s life.

There are many ways to donate to Guide Dogs and donating goods and services are one of these.

If you have products, services, or skilled expertise to donate, we’d love to hear from you! Please contact us at partnerships@guidedogs.com.au.

Donation Dogs

Lend a hand to support our programs.

Hosting a Donation Dog will enable your business to get involved with Guide Dogs at no cost. You’ll help change the life of someone who has low vision or blindness by providing a way for the wider community to support our work.

Our iconic Donation Dogs have been hosted in retail outlets for over 60 years and today they generate more funds than ever.

To find out how you can get involved in hosting a Donation Dog please contact your local Guide Dogs organisation.

Support a Puppy

Follow a puppy on their journey to Guide Dog graduation.

Did you know it costs more than $50,000 to breed, train, raise, and match a Guide Dog to a person with low vision or blindness

As a corporate supporter, you can support a pup all the way through its journey. You even get the unique opportunity to name the puppy!

You’ll then get to follow your puppy’s journey through Puppy Raising, Guide Dog Training, and finally graduating. Then they’ll enter a life-changing partnership with someone with low vision, blindness or specialised support needs.

You’ll receive regular Pupdates with the latest news and photos and, where feasible, visits to the workplace from your sponsored puppy.

Workplace Giving

Workplace Giving can improve staff retention, lift morale, and help embed organisational values.

Workplace Giving is one of the simplest and most effective ways to support Guide Dogs through regular pre-tax donations and can lift staff morale and values within your organisation.

A Workplace Giver is someone who makes a small regular donation direct from their pay to a charity and receives the tax benefit straight away. For example, if you donate $5, it will only cost you $3.40, however your selected charity will receive the full $5. In many cases, employers will match staff donations, so the value of their donation may even double. It’s a great way to show employees the difference your organisation can make.

If you are looking to establish or enhance your workplace giving program you can access our Workplace Giving (WPG) toolkit which includes: 

  • a guide to setting up and launching your WPG program 
  • WPG partnership opportunities with Guide Dogs 
  • WPG milestones from Guide Dogs 
  • WPG program assets available from Guide Dogs

“I give to Guide Dogs because what they do genuinely helps people. Knowing that my support can help someone live a more independent life means so much to me. I truly love the work they do.”
