At Light Up Learning, we work to inspire and empower young people who need extra support to rediscover the joy of learning. Many of the young people we work with have disengaged from traditional education and are at risk of being left behind. By partnering with us, your company can help change this narrative and play a pivotal role in giving these young people the personalised learning experiences they deserve.

Why Partner with Light Up Learning?

Your partnership with Light Up Learning is an investment in the future. Together, we can transform the lives of young people by giving them the confidence and skills they need to succeed, both in school and beyond. Many of the students we work with face significant barriers in their education, such as poverty, mental health challenges, or a lack of tailored support.

By partnering with us, you can help us:

  • Reach more young people who are at risk of falling through the cracks of the education system.

  • Empower students to overcome their personal challenges through mentoring and individualised learning plans.

  • Provide vital resources that allow us to deliver creative, student-led projects that re-ignite a love for learning.

  • Help build a brighter future by equipping young people with the skills, confidence, and curiosity needed to achieve their potential.

Your company can make a real difference in the lives of young people who need it most, contributing to the future of education and helping break the cycle of disadvantage.

How You Can Partner With Us

There are a variety of ways your company can get involved and make an impact:

1. Corporate Sponsorships

By sponsoring one of our key programmes or events, your business can directly contribute to the educational development of children who are struggling. Sponsorships provide crucial funds for mentoring sessions, educational resources, and workshops. In return, your company receives brand visibility and the satisfaction of knowing you are making a real difference in young people’s lives.

2. Charity of the Year

Select Light Up Learning as your Charity of the Year and dedicate your company’s fundraising efforts towards helping students who are facing significant challenges. We will work closely with your team to develop a bespoke programme of activities that engage your employees and raise vital funds, ensuring that young people across Edinburgh, the Borders and Lothians can benefit from our services.

3. Employee Volunteering

Give your employees the opportunity to engage in meaningful, hands-on support by volunteering their time and skills. From assisting in workshops, trips or creating networking opportunities for our young people, corporate volunteers help us deliver life-changing support to young people. Volunteering not only benefits the young people we work with, but also provides your staff with a rewarding, impactful experience.

4. Cause-Related Marketing

Showcase your brand’s commitment to education and youth support by partnering with us on a cause-related marketing campaign. Align your product or service with Light Up Learning, and a portion of your sales can go towards our programmes, helping us to support more young people in need. It’s a great way to demonstrate your company’s values while making a tangible difference.

5. Corporate Donations & Payroll Giving

Your financial contributions are invaluable in helping us reach more young people. Corporate donations or payroll giving schemes enable your staff to make regular contributions that directly support our work. Whether it’s a one-time gift or ongoing support, every penny helps us change lives through education.

The Impact of Your Support

By partnering with Light Up Learning, your company will be part of a growing movement to ensure that no young person is left behind in their education. Your support will allow us to:

  • Mentor more young people, providing personalised guidance to help them reconnect with their education.

  • Deliver innovative, student-led learning projects that ignite curiosity and give students a sense of ownership over their education.

  • Break down barriers that prevent young people from thriving, such as economic hardship or emotional struggles.

  • Provide resources and tools that equip students with the skills and confidence they need to succeed, both academically and personally.

Together, we can build a brighter future where every young person, regardless of their background or circumstances, has the opportunity to achieve their full potential.

Join Us in Making a Difference

Partnering with Light Up Learning is more than a business decision—it’s a chance to be part of something bigger. It’s an opportunity to make a lasting impact on the lives of young people who need it most.
