What's Up Seeks New Sponsor

12 Jan 05

What’s Up, the children’s telephone counselling service, is seeking a new corporate sponsor. This is due to the fact that one of its present sponsors has decided to take a different emphasis in terms of their community commitments, says Grant Taylor, Executive Director, What’s Up.

“What’s Up has been associated with Kellogg since our organisation was set up,” he says. “Kellogg was one of four founding sponsors who were instrumental in ensuring our service could get off the ground.

“During the last four years, we have had a rewarding relationship with Kellogg not only in terms of their sponsorship but the commitment of their staff to undertaking many activities in their own time,” says Grant Taylor. “Their sponsorship has meant many thousands of calls from young people have been answered and an increasing profile and awareness of What’s Up has been achieved.”

Taylor says What’s Up is now looking for a new corporate sponsor to join Griffins and White Pages to ensure they can meet the demand from young people for their services.
