Support Multibank Scotland: Transform lives and rebuild communities
We are redefining how businesses can make a real difference in communities facing unprecedented poverty and crisis. We invite companies of all sizes to partner with us to Fight Poverty and Fight Pollution.
Why support Multibank Scotland?
In Scotland, millions of families struggle daily with basic necessities. Between 2020 and 2023, 24% of all children lived in poverty, with many families facing heartbreaking decisions between heating and eating or buying soap versus school supplies. By partnering with us, your company can be part of the solution:
- Fight poverty: Provide vital supplies like food, bedding, hygiene products and furnishings to families and children in need, helping them regain stability and dignity.
- Fight pollution: Reduce waste by repurposing surplus or slightly damaged goods that would otherwise end up in landfills.
- Rebuild community resilience: Play a key role in a UK-wide coalition of compassion, uniting businesses, charities and local organisations to create meaningful change.
“It’s helped me avoid a crisis because I could sort my finances out and if I didn’t have enough to cover everything, I could get help from the donated items.”
What Multibank Scotland offers businesses
Brand integrity and recognition
Your reputation is your greatest asset, and we prioritise safeguarding it. Our rigorous vetting processes ensure donations reach trustworthy, regulated charities that can maximise their impact. This means your contributions will directly benefit those most in need while reinforcing your company's commitment to making a positive impact.
One-stop donation hub
Multibanks provide a seamless process for donating surplus goods. We serve as a single access point to distribute goods efficiently across a network of vetted local charities, teachers, social workers and food banks.
Circular economy alignment
Join the movement toward a circular economy. By donating surplus goods, you reduce environmental impact, avoid landfill costs, and contribute to a greener, more sustainable future.
Volunteering and engagement
You already know your employees are capable of incredible things. By partnering with our Community Engagement Programme, your team’s passion and potential are transformed into a powerful force for positive change. We’ll help you organise a company- or department-wide event that benefits a local charity partner in your area, making an immediate impact on individuals and families in need within your community.
Measurable social impact
For every pound invested, we generate up to £9.75 in social value. Benefits include reduced financial strain on families, improved child well-being and stronger community ties. Your contributions could be the difference that prevents a family from falling into homelessness or ensures children can thrive in school.
“We deliver intensive support to families at risk of having children removed. By having access to the Big Hoose and the products they supply, it gives us more time to focus on keeping the family together.”
