Major teen cancer charity in Australia all set to be Appco Group Support's biggest budget client

A major teen cancer charity in Australia which has employed the services of Appco Group Australia's support division is all set to be the biggest budget client of the Appco Group Support division. The organisation which is based in Australia, strives to assist young persons who suffer from cancer and has great plans for the year 2011. The budget this organisation has set apart for its efforts is the largest that is anticipated on behalf of any charity that is associated with Appco Group Support so far.

The organisation first approached Appco Group Support for assistance in their noble ventures in the year 2008 and ever since the charity has seen a continuous increase in the number of their regular donors – as much as 18, 000.

Thanks to the huge amount of support that the charity benefited from the fund-raising campaigns executed by Appco Group Support, it has been able to turn its dream of bringing young people living with cancer together and aiding them into a reality. It has achieved this by means of several services which include well-being programs, support networks, counselling and most importantly ongoing long-term support for young people. The organisation which has been making a mark, managed to assist as many as 10, 000 young people in the year 2010 alone.

“It is great for us to have such enthusiastic ambassadors not only raising important funds, but also educating the community about the important work we do including supporting, developing and empowering young people living with cancer”, says the Marketing and Fundraising Manager of the charity.

Appco Group Support has taken every effort to raise fundraisers for the charity and today there are 5 marketing companies that represent the charity across Sydney, Melbourne and Gold Coast.

"The response from the public is respectful and positive. Many people we speak to and donors we acquire thank us for coming to their workplace, which is definitely a motivating factor,” said Independent Contractor Richard Difford of a leading company which signed up more than 100 donors for the charity.

Appco Support and the charity organisation are dedicated to working together in order to build the organisation and 2011 does look like it will bring in promising results for Appco Group Australia as a whole.

Donor push for major charity in Australia

The charity division (Appco Group Support) of Appco Group Australia has always been doing great. Whether it is with regards to creating and spreading brand awareness of the charity organisations associated with them in the continent or whether it is in acquiring numerous donors for their clients by means of effective donor acquisition programs, Appco Group Support has always excelled in its tasks.

Appco Group Support has been working with one of the largest development agencies in the globe which focuses on helping children in developing countries benefit from better facilities for many years now.

When asked his opinion, the marketing manager of the development agency had this to say “Appco Group Support was able to provide the professional, reliable and cost effective service that we needed."

It was during this financial year that the Appco Group Australian team was brought on board with a view to increase more donations to the charity organisations through sign-ups in Australia.

The Marketing Manager at the development agency is currently working with Appco Group Australia in an effort to drive in more supporters and donors for a very effective program they have designed recently.

Appco Group Australia kicks off two fundraising campaigns

Appco Group Australia has always been a company which takes initiative in kicking off creative and effective campaigns if they know it is going to be useful for the people, the company as well as its clients. The company as such has a great penchant for making a difference to people on the social level and thus together with Appco Group Support – their specialised division for charity programs, has been leading the front when it comes to fundraising programs. To help them in this task they have a network of as many as thousands of fundraisers.

Today, Appco Group Support and Appco Group Australia both together are primed and ready to kick two massive new charity partner campaigns into top gear – one is for a world-renowned company which fights for the right of children and the other is a leading humanitarian organisation which fights against global poverty.

Following a number of test campaigns conducted in the past, Appco is finally rolling out full fundraising programs with these two highly respected and reputed organisations.

Taking into consideration the brand recognition that both these charity partners of Appco Group Australia enjoy in the Australian market, Appco anticipates exceptional outcomes for both campaigns.

Appco Group Australia, with the help and support of Appco Group Support has successfully acquired 10000 donors for a leading Australian family and community services provider.

Right from the beginning, Appco group Australia has succeeded in delivering tremendous results for the organisation. In the first year of working together, Appco completed the charity's 12-month donor recruitment goals within 6 months.

The results as well as the work achieved by Appco group Australia have been great so far. And with success in their kitty, Appco Group Australia is all geared up to see the campaign take higher levels and to make their relationship with the charity organisation grow stronger as the relationship progresses.

Field Representatives from Appco Group Sports invited to gain a ‘behind the scenes’ look at West Coast Eagles

Field Representatives from Appco Group Sports were on all all-time high and in all smiles when the Aussie Rules team invited as many as 30 Field Representatives from Appco Group Sports to gain a ‘behind the scenes’ look at the club. The 30 field representatives who were invited by West Coast Eagles recently won a golden chance to interact with the club members. Not only did the representatives mix with West Coast Eagles Staff but they also tried to gain a better understanding about how exactly their company’s work of raising funds helps the club in conducting its programs.

When asked about the experience at the club, an Appco Group Representative had this to say…

“Having the Schools Programs Coordinator, Kim Hannah, speak to the group about the ‘Eagles Rock My School’ program – the main beneficiary of the raffle proceeds –provided fantastic insight into the program and how we help make a difference,”

“It was great for the group to hear the results of their hard work, all while further developing their program knowledge, which has already proven a boon for them out in the field when discussing the program with consumers."

And the same question posed to a West Coast Eagles staff got the following reply

“Staff were extremely impressed with the professionalism, knowledge and eagerness of the Appco personnel, a real credit to their leadership," said the West Coast Eagles representative.

“The gathering was extremely beneficial for all parties in developing the relationship between Appco and West Coast and we look forward to hosting similar events in the future."

Appco Group Australia must be indeed proud hearing that! Way to go Appco and its staff!

Charity organisation in Australia flourishes thanks to Appco Group Australia

A Charity organisation in Australia is flourishing today thanks to the efforts of Appco Group Australia. Way back in 2001 when Appco Group partnered with this charity organisation, the latter had zero donors – those who were committed to regular giving and hence a comparatively small revenue stream. Today, if it is a praise-worthy fact that the charity organisation has about 243, 00 ongoing donors generating a multi-million dollar revenue stream, it is kudos to the efforts of Appco Group Australia and Appco Group Support.

In the very first year of their association, Appco Group recruited as many as 1,679 donors for the charity organisation. Last year a whopping 26,000 new donors were recruited by the company and Appco Group Australia has so far succeeded in generating a total of 243,000 ongoing donors for the organisation over the 10-year period of its association. Speaks a lot about the growth and effort of Appco Group Australia!

In addition to these benefits that Appco Group has gifted it, the charity organisation also benefits from regular giving and this has given it the time to invest in processes, procedures and the quality of staff to build the organisation.

With new fundraising programs launched around the world, the continued success of Appco Group Australia with this charity organisation has seen it creating goodwill for the latter on an international level.

Appco Group Australia lending their helpful hands to an Australian organisation assisting people experiencing psychiatric disabilities

Appco Group Australia with the help of fundraisers from Appco Group Support is lending their hands and assisting an organisation in Australia which is helping people experiencing psychiatric disabilities.

Appco Group Support realised the noble work that this organisation has been doing and was quick in lending its helping hand to the organisation to assist it in raising its own funds. With assistance from Appco Group Support and Appco Group Australia, this organisation which helps people with psychiatric disabilities is currently looking forward at launching three new programs.

Unfortunately, for the past 30 years, this organisation could not conduct these programs since it was previously funded entirely by the government. The regular donors who support the organisation are now helping these programs become a reality.

The fundraising campaign took off in 2009 and today Appco Group Support associated fundraisers have managed to recruit 1,700 donors who have committed to support this organisation and these programs on an ongoing basis.

At present, almost 60-65 per cent of the organisations’ overall income comes in the form of face-to-face fundraising.
