CSR Programmes for Small and Medium-Sized Businesses
Your business can change the future of your community. By investing in nearby schools, you’re not only supporting young people’s access to STEAM education, you’re actively building a pipeline of skilled, future-ready talent.
Helping local schools is a great way to show that you care about the community and want to see it grow economically and socially in the long term. Community outreach is a great way to make a difference, whether you want to give back, build your future workforce, or meet environmental, social, and governance (ESG) goals.
Why CSR is Important for Small and Medium-Sized Businesses
Your business can play a vital role in preparing young people for the jobs of tomorrow, especially as 65% of children today will work in positions that don’t yet exist. With 43% of UK STEM vacancies unfilled and a £1.5 billion annual loss to the economy due to skill shortages, the opportunity to make a difference is both urgent and meaningful.
When you give money to local schools, you're not just helping out; you're also making the economy in your area stronger and preparing the next generation of workers.
The ‘Support Your School' Voucher Scheme
Creative Hut's flexible voucher program makes it easy for small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) of all sizes and types to get involved in education outreach.
Choose a voucher valued between £500 and £5,000 to provide assistance with:
- STEAM kits and coding tools for schools in the area
- Workshops for students that are hands-on and led by experts
- CPD-approved teacher training to improve how lessons are taught
