Sponsorship & Donation Application
Online Sponsorship & Donation Application Page
At Wedgewood, we believe that strong communities form the foundation of everything we do. Our marketing focus is on a select number of key projects and charitable organisations that are close to our hearts, allowing us to make a deeper and more meaningful impact. Some of the inspiring initiatives we support include the WWF, The Litteroom Project, Singakwenza Children’s Education Centres, and our very own Handmade Box Project, which uplifts disadvantaged youth in our local community.
Due to the high volume of requests we receive, we kindly ask that you review our guidelines and exclusions carefully before submitting your application.
Our Process
We ask that all requests are submitted via the form provided on our website. Only proposals that align with our guidelines and further our strategic objectives will be reviewed. As we receive many applications, we are unable to accept requests via phone or email and cannot provide telephonic updates on the status or receipt of requests.
While we wish we could respond positively to all the wonderful causes, submission of a request does not guarantee our involvement. Requests must be submitted 6-8 weeks prior, and we aim to respond within a month if your application is successful.
Exclusions
Although we are committed to supporting as many deserving initiatives as possible, there are certain types of requests we are unable to accommodate, such as:
- Requests benefiting only an individual or family
- Sporting events, team apparel, equipment, facilities, or training
- Advertising, film, or video projects
- Contests and pageants
- Research projects (unless aligned) or study tours
- Political or religious organisations as direct beneficiaries
- Emergency relief for individuals or families (Note: We support broader disaster relief and humanitarian agencies)
- Organisations or programmes that fall outside of the communities where Wedgewood operates
- Funding for operational costs or salaries
