Corporate Supporters
Our corporate partners make a valuable contribution to our young people's learning and development.
They provide financial support, valuable time and access to incredible opportunities for our learners and wider community.
Together, we are building closer communities and developing the new generations of thinkers and leaders of the future.
Our reputational excellence is based on our vision of high educational standards and high apirations. We have an unshakeable belief that we can change lives and enable our learners to achieve beyond all expectations.
We have created many opportunities for thousands of learners across our communities. All of our schools (within the Platanos Trust) are recognised as some of the top-performing schools consistently adding value to young people's learning and development. They are Inclusion Quality Mark (IQM) Centres of Excellence.
Partner with us
Our corporate partners share our ambition to elevate young people from underrepresented backgrounds through donations of time and financial support. By working with us, you can show commitment to STEM, inclusion and community philanthropy, and introduce diverse, talented learners to your sector to learn more about career paths.
Partnership opportunities
From team-building events, workshops and seminars, to mentoring and scholarship endowments, there are lots of ways that, together, we can enable our learners to achieve their ambitions.
Scholarships
By sponsoring a STEM scholarship, your philanthropy will have a big impact on the lives of promising learners within our schools.
The STEM Scholarships Programme nurtures a learner's aptitude at every stage of their educational journey - from primary to secondary education and beyond.
Keen to leave a legacy?
We invite companies and individuals to create a named scholarship that is awarded to a Platanos Trust pupil who has exceptional talent in your STEM field.

Become a mentor
Mentoring is a powerful tool in the elevation of underrepresented young people. With your professional STEM knowledge, experience and passion, you can inspire and guide talented learners to success.
Please contact us at fundraising@platanostrust.com to share your interest in becoming a Platanos Foundation mentor.
We also welcome visiting STEM experts and professionals to deliver engaging and inspiring seminars and workshops to our next generation of talent.
Offer an internship / apprenticeship
We are always seeking partners to provide bright pupils with real-world experience in your STEM sector through on-site internships, apprenticeships and customised field trips.
To discuss opportunities, please contact Sarah Louis at fundraising@platanostrust.com.
We would love to work together.
Fundraising events
Need a charity partner for a corporate community day? We have great ideas for 'doing-good days' that benefit both your staff and our learners, such as creating STEM packs for our primary school problem-solvers, or other team-building activities.
Another way to combine corporate team building with social responsibility is our Dodgeball Charity Throwdown event in London. Check our events list for further details. The tournament is a fun-filled, high-energy event that pits your company's skills against your peers (or may be your competitors!).
Or why not nominate Platanos Foundation as your charity partner for the epic Three Peaks Challenge?
Please feel free to contact us for further information.
