Give your business an inspiration boost
Align your premium brand with a local initiative to recognise Harpenden’s inspirational women at an Evening of Inspiration in March 2020.
What is it?
#SHEINSPIRES2020 is a project designed to recognise and showcase the daily acts of kindness and inspiring work of the amazing women in Harpenden. Online nominations and voting is invited from the end of January until mid February, and the Evening of Inspiration is held towards the end of International Women’s Month in March. 2020 will be the third consecutive year the initiative has been run - see the women recognised in 2018 and 2019.
Who organises it?
Professional photographer Penny Bird organises and promotes the project, manages the nominations and voting, photographs and interviews the nominees, and arranges the event to recognise the women. She was inspired to start this initiative by a tribute held for her mother in South Africa.
How much will it cost?
Your financial investment is limited to sponsoring the refreshments and canapès for the event, and contributing to a bouquet for the top three nominees. Access passes/free tickets are allocated via Eventbrite. Indirect costs would include time and resources to maximise your sponsorship to your customers and at the event (last year there were circa 50 attendees including Harpenden’s MP, a councillor and local celebrities).
What’s in it for my business?
You would be supporting and encouraging uplifting and inspirational acts in our local area.
Your company promotional material would be displayed at the event.
Photographs of the event and nominees would be provided by pennybird and camera to use on your social media channels.
pennybird and camera would cross promote your support on her digital assets (Website, Facebook, Instagram, Google Business, LinkedIn and Twitter)
PR - Your support would be mentioned in two press releases - coverage isn’t guaranteed, but the initiative has been supported by local publications in print and online for the previous couple of years.
