New Principal Partnerships Salesforce

Government Support We are forever grateful for our partnership with the Australian Government Department of Health. Their investment in early intervention and prevention is encouraging, and their willingness to match the support we get from private and corporate partners is incredibly valuable. This year, thanks to their funding, we commenced our Independent Evaluation with the University of Melbourne (outcomes) and Soulab (process and economic) and we are very excited to share the outcomes with you over the coming year.

Raise and Salesforce created a multi-faceted partnership which has provided holistic and transformative support. Salesforce is funding nine programs nationally over two years, and their inspiring CEO Pip Marlow is part of our Elevate program, where we match C-Suite executives with sought after business mentors. Over the past three years, 95 Salesforce team members have mentored. They’ve also given their space and time for special projects, such as our groundbreaking Youth Summit. Securing great spaces is vital to the success of these activities as they drive creative thinking and build room for strong connections. Canaccord Many Canaccord team members are parents and, after two years of lockdowns, learnt firsthand the difficulties young people experience. This has made them passionate about mental health and prevention programs for young people, which led to a two year financial commitment to support 100 new matches each year. Along with critical funding, this partnership- in-action includes fundraising initiatives, many team members signing up to mentor, as well as access to boardrooms and engaging their clients to support Raise or sign up to mentor. While only 8 months into our partnership, Canaccord have already had a significant impact, with more exciting plans ahead.
