How to Sponsor Giddy

GIDDY GOANNA
Child Health & Safety Program Sponsorship

Provides the opportunity to:-

• Make a commercial return on your sponsorship investment
• Be recognised as a good corporate citizen
PLUS
• Improve the health and safety of many thousands of children and their families

Giddy Goanna has proven to be an exceptional way to improve the health and safety of children and their parents throughout Australia. Giddy Goanna is a non-profit organisation and would like to form sponsorship partnerships with reputable organisations to enable the continuation of the Giddy Goanna program so as it benefits millions of children throughout Australia and the world.

When you sponsor a Giddy Goanna book, not only will you be recognised as a sponsor in:-

• The Giddy book sponsored
• Giddy’s web page (www.giddygoanna.org)
• Media releases and TV/radio interviews and chat shows
• Have your Web-page linked to Giddy’s

...but you will also receive a large quantity of the Giddy Goanna book sponsored.

With these complimentary copies, you may choose to:-
• Sell them for the RRP of $7:95 (Your distribution outlets/channels can be noted on Giddy’s web page where it lists how people can access Giddy’s books. This web section is currently being developed.)
• Distribute to your employees who have children or grandchildren. This is a highly effective workplace, health & safety strategy. Employees behaviours improve at work as they become more aware of health and safety issues at home.
• Distribute to your customers as thankyou gifts
• Donate to a Children’s appeal, such as the Salvation Army, St Vincents de Paul or the Smith Family as underprivileged children generally suffer more health and safety problems.

"Fabulous Food" Covers nutrition, exercise, dental hygiene. Particularly relevant to addressing the childhood obesity and associated issues such as diabetes. Scheduled for release in October 2004 or 2005. Due to the high demand for Giddy’s nutrition book from health professionals and teachers, it would be great if sufficient funding was secured to enable it to be released in October 2004.

Consultation and Involvement in Content of Each Title
Over 320 experts, organisations and children throughout Australia are involved in the development of the content of each Giddy title. If there are relevant personnel in your organisation, they are most welcome to be involved in the development of the content of each book.
