Go Gold® CORPORATE PARTNERSHIPS

The success of the highly visible and incredibly successful pink ribbon breast cancer awareness campaign begun in the early 1990s is well-known, and since then, the use of “Awareness Ribbons” to symbolize ongoing efforts to cure a host of other diseases has become very popular: pearl (clear) for lung cancer, peach for uterine cancer, green for leukemia, burgundy and ivory for oral, head, and neck cancers, to name just a few. Thanks to the ACCO, the Gold Ribbon has become the recognized symbol of the critical need for awareness about childhood cancers. The ACCO chose gold because it best represents the precious nature of cancer’s smallest victims. A core element of ACCO’s advocacy mission is devoted to raising awareness about the Gold Ribbon and what it represents: the desperate struggle against childhood cancer facing far too many children and families, the long-term impacts and side effects caused by current childhood cancer treatments, and the critical need for new and better treatments designed just for these young warriors.

But we can’t complete our mission alone. We desperately need the help of dedicated, compassionate corporate partners who are as committed as we are to raising awareness about childhood cancer and the enormous toll this disease takes on our youth. With the help of our corporate partners, we hope to grow the visibility, understanding, and appreciation of the Gold Ribbon and the successes and heartaches it symbolizes by prominently featuring it on an ever-growing list of products. By doing so, we will help families and children facing cancer know that they are not alone, encourage and succor them in their time of need, and give them our promise that we are doing everything in our power to achieve a future in which no child dies or lives with the long-term side effects of this dread disease.

Jel Sert Partnership 2WHY PARTNER WITH THE ACCO?

We are seeking corporate partners who are interested in helping us raise awareness of the symbol for childhood cancer—the Gold Ribbon—while growing their own business the same time. The fact is, corporate partnership and cause-marketing with the ACCO works because it is, literally, a “win-win”. Recent surveys show that consumers want to purchase products associated with a cause: most consumers are mothers, and 93% of mothers will switch brands to help a worthy organization. And mothers have children, whom they want to cherish, love, and protect from diseases like childhood cancer to the very best of their ability. So partnering your product with an organization like the ACCO that is 100% dedicated to improving the lives of children and increasing awareness of childhood cancer just makes sense. We pride ourselves in our ability to offer companies a way to engage employees and customers alike, and we are committed to helping our corporate partners form individual cause-marketing plans that are completely unique, represent their specific markets and interests, and support elements of the ACCO mission that are most important to them.

The childhood cancer community may be smaller than those of other types of cancer, but it is made up of committed professionals, devoted parents, and grateful children. We are all fighting for hope, and we would love for you to be in our corner.
