''A volunteer based center connecting community members with opportunities"
PICAL Partnership Program
​
The PICAL Partnership Program supports our services and our financial sustainability and connects your business directly with the community. We offer a wide range of activities across two sites. We invite companies and community groups to partner with us in ways that align with your goals. Partnering with PICAL increases your visibility and impact within the community.
Partnerships run for the calendar year, with pro rata options for mid-year joins. Payments go directly to the Australian Neighbourhood Houses and Centres Association (ANHCA) and are tax-deductible, less a 5% administration fee. Alternatively, pay PICAL directly (not tax-deductible).
Partnership offer includes:
​
-
Advertorial at partnership launch and annually
-
Business Signage at our Blue Gum Reserve or Warley Ave sites (e.g., PICAL partners with Coles for the Emergency Food Relief Pantry).
-
Framed Certificate of Appreciation for your business premises
-
Social Media acknowledgement for featured partners (e.g., "Thank you, Coles, for supporting our Emergency Food Relief Pantry.")
-
Network with peers at our annual partnership event.
-
Employee engagement through volunteering opportunities.
-
Access PICAL facilities free of charge when available.
