Support Arboretum Marbella and boost your business image
Arboretum Marbella are looking for businesses to sponsor their project “Step by Step for a Dream” where their Director will walk 150,000 steps or 120km dressed as a tree as part of the Marbella 4Day Walking event in October. This is to raise money to construct the first classroom in Andalucia built using bio construction and will also really benefit your business from as little as 250€.
Known as the “DOMO CONFIANZA” (Dome of Trust), this 140m2 structure will be made of 100% local and natural materials such as cane, clay, stones and natural fibres. This stunning and environmentally friendly building will be used as an open classroom where they can give their workshops, courses and educational sessions on environmental issues and will help them to accommodate nearly 8,000 visitors which they receive each year. It will be made up of 8,200 canes and will take a team of 16 skilled ecological builders two months to build. Whilst the charity has been working hard to source most of the materials for free and this method of bio construction costs half the price of normal building methods, the works will cost the charity 71.388 euros and they are looking for businesses and individuals to sponsor his steps for 0.20€ per step in order to raise 30,000€ to go towards the building project.
Each step is around 0.8 meters so the team has calculated there are 1,259 steps per kilometre and 150,000 steps to complete his 120km route. They are asking people to give generously to make their dream a reality via the website www.pasoapasoxarboretum.org
They have an excellent opportunity for businesses to support this project, promote their business and have the use of this space for just 250€. If you sponsor 1km, the Director will come to your premises dressed as a tree for a photo. This image will be posted on their website and shared with over 5,000 fans on their Facebook and will be available for your use for PR purposes. Also, this amazing dome will be available for your use for one day free of charge for a corporate event, training or promotion.
This is an excellent way to support a fantastic local charity whilst boosting your business and fulfilling your corporate social responsibility. Email – maria@arboretummarbella.org or call 646806016 for more information.
