JAXON’s approach to community engagement, including donations and sponsorships, is motivated by our culture and values, which encompass a desire to help generate sustainable outcomes. We strongly value the communities in which we operate and seek to actively uplift and improve these communities whenever practicable. Over the last few years, JAXON has aligned itself with a charity or not-for profit, generally for a period of 12 months, in an effort to raise much needed funds and awareness for that group and its beneficiaries.
When donating and sponsoring causes, we seek to:
- Engage, contribute and add value to the communities we work with;
- Prioritise supporting educational initiatives and Institutes, as we believe that through knowledge, living standards and the general well-being of society improve;
- Appraise requests for donations and sponsorships in line with our culture and return value to the business;
- Allocate a budget each year, cost all donations in financial and in kind and regularly report against the budget;
- Ensure our contributions receive appropriate value, including brand recognition, and achieve maximum impact and benefit; and
- Monitor the impact, performance and improvements achieved through our contribution(s)
Organisations who seek our support are / must be:
- Legally formed, accredited and registered;
- Similarly aligned in values to our business and driven towards achieving visible results and sustainable outcomes;
- Required to submit a business case outlining the outcomes of our contribution and the benefit of our company will receive;
- Organisations that operate within the same communities as us; and
- Required to make their Governors or Executives available to engage directly with us when possible and to avoid third party fundraising organisations.
