SPONSORIUM Report Reveals How Well Philanthropy Meets with Brand Objectives
Mar 5, 2013 11:00 AM ET

The latest SPONSORIUM Report, which is an analysis of the actual data that brands around the world have recorded as it relates to their Community Investment and CSR activities, reveals unique industry insights.

The first chart included here shows (based on over 3,000 actual brand supported CSR initiatives in the US) that activities centered on Education and Youth are most popular as measured by the amount of records created by brands in their own cloud-based tracking tool. Next most active Sectors are Community Events and Health organizations.

The second graph is a unique Performance Grid that shows both how well causes met with brand objectives, and at the same time how cost efficient these causes were (based on nearly 2,000 actual brand supported CSR initiatives priced under $500,000 in the US during 2012). Activities centered on Environment and Health scored highest against brand objectives, while those focused on Disabled persons/groups and Health were most budget friendly.
