			<title>Become a Partner</title>
			<description>&lt;br&gt;
&lt;div&gt;We want to build multi-faceted, mutually beneficial relationships with our Corporate Partners.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;The American Red Cross is unique in that we can structure relationships that provide substantial benefit to&amp;nbsp;the corporate organization,&amp;nbsp;to the employees of the corporation, or both.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;We want to engage in a process of mutual discovery to&amp;nbsp;be sure we understand your business, and try to find ways that we can be helpful to you.&amp;nbsp; No two corporations look at&amp;nbsp;social investments in exactly the same way:&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;Some corporations are strictly philanthropic in their orientation and use an independent grants model;
    &lt;li&gt;Others have transformed corporate philanthropy into an employee benefit through matching gifts;
    &lt;li&gt;Still others are focused on engaging employee-volunteers as the first essential component;
    &lt;li&gt;Many are interested in achieving public relations goals with their social investments;
    &lt;li&gt;Often a corporation&amp;nbsp;values the opportunity to associate with the Red Cross brand;
    &lt;li&gt;Still others are&amp;nbsp;seek a relationship built on products and services that The Red Cross can offer. &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&amp;nbsp;Are we interested in corporate financial support?&amp;nbsp; Of course we are!&amp;nbsp; There are so many ways we can structure it.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;Traditional grant proposals for support of the chapter operations or individual programs of interest
    &lt;li&gt;Employee payroll deduction campaigns and other employee-oriented matching programs
    &lt;li&gt;Corporate matches for employee volunteer hours
    &lt;li&gt;Special events
    &lt;li&gt;Co-branding promotions
    &lt;li&gt;Health &amp;amp; Safety sponsorship packages &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#000000&quot;&gt;If you are interested in discussing the creation of a broad relationship with Houston's Red Cross, please contact Bob King, Managing Director,&amp;nbsp;Partner Relations, at 713-313-1632, or by email at information@ghac.org.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
