What is a partnership with Brakkenfestival?
Every child deserves carefree fun at play. Partnership at the Brakkenfestival means a collaboration in which you contribute to the playing pleasure of children. But it goes further: you can also facilitate the development of volunteer work. Whatever form the partnership takes, it is always in good consultation.
Every year, more than 150 companies, funds and organizations partner with the Brakkenfestival with monetary and/or product donations for various causes. For example, they give something for the children to make an activity possible or for volunteers to eat at lunch.
When you partner with the Brakkenfestival, you have a daily reach of an average of 1,250 children, their parents and 200 volunteers. You join a network of 150 companies and organizations that annually connect with the Brakkenfestival.
You connect your name and/or product to the Brakkenfestival from a social point of view and you show your environment that you support a non-profit organization. This shows that you are a socially engaged entrepreneur. A great advantage of sponsoring the Brakkenfestival is that it is tangible: the result is namely a lot of fun for children, satisfied parents (parents give a satisfaction score of 8.55!) and satisfied volunteers (volunteers give a satisfaction score of 8.54!).

I love creating partnerships! We look together at what our goals are and how we can strengthen each other. - Ilse, Coordinator Partnerships

- Bewustwording Brabant WaterBrabant Water wil de bewustwording bij kinderen verhogen en het drinken van kraanwater stimuleren, want kraanwater is de gezondste en duurzaamste dorstlesser. Er is daarom een samenwerking waarbij Brabant Water met een waterfiets aanwezig is en de kinderen een gratis bekertje water krijgen. Op deze manier komen kinderen met kraanwater in contact en stimuleert ook het Brakkenfestival om kraanwater te drinken.
- Aanpakken met Grote Broer/ZusGrote broer en zus zijn aanpakken waarbij de ontwikkeling van jeugd centraal staat. Jongeren van 15 tot 24 jaar worden ingezet als positieve rolmodellen tijdens activiteiten. De broers en zussen doen dit deels vrijwillig en deels als stage. Deze jeugd ondersteunt het Brakkenfestival tijdens de op- en afbouw van het evenement. Tijdens het evenement helpen grote broers en zussen bij de activiteiten. Dit levert leermomenten op voor de grote broers en zussen en tegelijkertijd levert dit vrijwilligers op voor het Brakkenfestival. Grote Broer & Zus zijn onderdeel van Kick Breda.
