“Sponsor A Stay” & Supply Contributions

It is envisaged that the recipient family will be given the use of the house at no cost to themselves on a “Walk In – Walk Out” basis.

Consequently the Trust needs to provide for the cleaning, maintenance and management of the house and to also secure funding to purchase provisions.

The “Sponsor A Stay” package provides for this and gives contributing organisations the opportunity to make a philanthropic contribution in a less commercial manner whilst also providing the following benefits:

• A local charity with the benefits going back into the community.
  
  
• Making a difference in the lives of others.
  
  
• Being part of exciting and innovative fund raising initiatives.
  
  
• Association with a professionally run and respected organisation.
  
  
• A “Feel Good” factor of being part of such a worthwhile cause.
  
  
• Networking opportunities to meet and work with new people in our community.

Plus:

• The opportunity to develop a more personal involvement with the recipient family.
  
  
• The opportunity to write a personal note to the recipient family.
  
  
• A documented record of the hosting organisation in the “A House for Karen” book which is kept at the house.

In some situations the hosting organisation may know of a family within their network, workforce, client base, suppliers list who may qualify to use the house.
Providing the family meets the criteria (and subject to availability and priority of bookings) the Trust would endeavour to facilitate a stay for this family.

The length of a stay can be anything from 1 night to a maximum of 7 nights.
The “Sponsor A Stay” package sponsors the house for 1 week of the year and is an annual sponsorship

The “Sponsor a Stay” package is $1000


Supply Contributions

The Trust is also looking to secure a subsidized or gifted contribution for the provisions that will be presented to each recipient family.

It is envisioned that a well stocked pantry with basic essentials, dry and canned goods etc will form the basis for daily requirements and that will be supplemented by a provision package including fresh produce for each family visit.

The contributors will be given the opportunity of enclosing a card, Company Name/Brand/Logo with their gift. This will be collected and placed with the provisions package in the house by a trust representative.
