Corporate Sponsorship


 

OBLN Corporate Sponsors: Gold Partners

Corporate Sponsorship provides business with a unique opportunity to fund the core work of the OBLN and to work closely with us to achieve our vision. The support of Corporate Sponsors is vital in sustaining our reputation as an organization which inspires and challenges employers, while helping business forge productive relationships with opinion leaders, government and the wider community.

Benefits of Corporate Sponsorship: Gold Partners

A tailored relationship: Corporate Sponsors work closely with the Board and leadership of the OBLN and as such receive invitations to Corporate Partner forums focused on dialogue with governmental policy and program leaders, strategy, planning, and the development of key initiatives around disability in the workplace and marketplace. 

Customized training and facilitation:  The OBLN also works with Corporate Sponsors to design customized on-site training suited to their goals and internal audiences.

Community presence and corporate profile: All Corporate Sponsors receive prominent recognition on OBLN publications and communications. Corporate Sponsor names have been associated with the groundbreaking work of the OBLN.  The OBLN is the first in the nation to have a Business Case for inclusion of people with disabilities in the workplace to be written by business and printed by business.  We are the first nationally to have steered the inclusion of accommodation as a business strategy into a state business plan.  The business sponsors of the OBLN gain in public recognition, in stature as corporate leaders, and in national presence as the OBLN documents are circulated by our links with the US Chamber of Commerce and other national organizations.

Advertising at our nationally acclaimed website:  Corporate Sponsors benefit from advertising at the OBLN website at its most viewed areas.  WWW.OBLN.ORG provides a nationally acclaimed location to showcase your hiring diversity initiatives and cultures of inclusion.  WWW.OBLN.ORG was cited as a national best practice by the US BLN when it honored the OBLN as its 2005 BLN Chapter of the Year.
