Ways your business can help SAVE THE FROGS!

Sponsor Save The Frogs Day, April 30, 2010

Make your company an official corporate sponsor of Save The Frogs Day, an event for which we have already begun planning. Your company will gain valuable positive publicity and we would be certain to visibly acknowledge your company's assistance on the highly viewed Save The Frogs Day webpage, and on associated print materials. We expect Save The Frogs Day to be covered by every major news outlet in the world, and to have thousands of schools, zoos, museums, and community groups participating worldwide. Save The Frogs Day will also likely receive widespread political recognition.

Dedicate a day to SAVE THE FROGS!

Choose one day each year (or month!) and dedicate 10% of that day's sales to SAVE THE FROGS!. This is a great marketing tool, as it gives clients incentive to purchase, and reflects well on your company. If you give us advance notice, we can likely help you market the day. We may also be able to provide you with SAVE THE FROGS! wristbands that you can give to the day's customers as thank-you gifts.

Choose a percentage

Dedicate a portion of your annual sales or profit to SAVE THE FROGS!. We can potentially list you as an official corporate sponsor and license you use of our logo to help you advertise your business' frog-friendly ways.

Match funds

Run a SAVE THE FROGS! fundraiser at your place of business and offer to match the total raised; thus you would be providing incentive for your employees to donate. Alternatively, SAVE THE FROGS! can help you advertise that for a given period of time and up to a certain amount, your organization will match any donations we receive through our website.

Is the SAVE THE FROGS! logo on your website?

Add the SAVE THE FROGS! logo/link to your company's website and help spread awareness of the amphibian extinction crisis. Please link it to http://savethefrogs.com

Your homepage is a fantastic place for this, but there are other great locations as well: where do your customers go after finalizing their transaction on your website? Rather than let them drift off into cyberspace, please add our logo/link to that page and suggest they visit the SAVE THE FROGS! website to learn about ways they can help SAVE THE FROGS!.

Let your customers donate to SAVE THE FROGS!

Many airlines' online ticket purchasing system allows their customers to purchase a carbon offset.

This would be added to their bill, and at month's end your company could make a tax-deductible donation to SAVE THE FROGS! for the total amount raised. If your company wishes, you could then match those funds. Please contact us if you would like to learn more about this simple way to help SAVE THE FROGS!.

Donate your used vehicles to SAVE THE FROGS!

This company will pick up your used vehicle at any location in the United States, so please contact us if you would like to make a tax-deductible donation to SAVE THE FROGS! The process is simple and quick!
