It is our priority to secure partners for major sponsorship so we can develop into the future.
We are highly valued by the diabetes community and have received national and international recognition and awards.
We aim to develop partnerships with organisations who support our values of enabling wellbeing and mental health for people with diabetes and the community at large; and who are unique and inspirational in their approach to their business. We are leaders in the online counselling arena and in diabetes and mental health – and can offer wide exposure and benefits to our partner organisations.
When we started there were only 2 other organisations providing these types of online services and we are in the front line of counselling using the Internet in Australia.
We are primarily seeking partners who are prepared to get on board in our unique organisation as Founding Sponsors. This is an exciting opportunity for organisations to become involved in a vibrant and ground breaking service which is about to grow significantly.
Please contact us at [email protected] if your organisation is interested in discussing potential Sponsorship.
