Creating Shared Value

A partnership with the VAPA Foundation will blend your organization’s goals with our programmatic objectives. Our collaborations will demonstrate your company’s values and social responsibility to stakeholders. In fact, companies that commit to philanthropy enjoy higher employee morale, a stronger public image, and stronger customer loyalty. Institutional support is critical to our success, so we help our partners meet local reach business objectives, while supporting the San Diego Unified School District through the visual and performing arts.

Partnerships

Investing in the VAPA Foundation provides critical support to our programs. Small businesses, start-ups and national corporations partner with us to create a proven, sustainable impact on the lives of the children and families we benefit through the visual and performing arts.

Cause marketing campaigns create a mutually beneficial partnership through the donation of a portion of proceeds from your sales. This model is easily sustainable – as your company grows, so does your social impact. Creative promotions get consumers excited to purchase products that give back and help to create and enhance brand loyalty.

Amplify your company’s impact through employee engagement. Challenging your employees to get active for Art Education is a great way to foster community morale, retain employees, and fundraise for a great cause.
