sponsorships
Sponsorship monies allow Spectrum Care to continue to provide critical initiatives which
enhance various aspects of a disabled person’s life. Sponsorship also allows us to build a firm
foundation to assist the people we serve with their integration into the community.
Our communications team works diligently alongside the media on all aspects of Spectrum
Care’s activities, including our sponsored events and programmes.
Sponsor organisations benefit from exposure via our marketing materials, including our quarterly
newsletter Across the Spectrum, which are sent to each individual we serve and our dedicated
staff members, as well as over 1000 family members, physicians, politicians, schools, hospitals and
the general public.
Additionally, chief advisers and directors of the Ministry of Health receive a copy of our Annual Report,
which lists in detail our sponsors and partnering companies.
We have an array of yearly events which further reinforce our sponsor relationship, including our Annual
Ball (a formal gala with approximately 400 guests every year) and Art Exhibition (which features talents from
our Aspirations Day Centres).
A partnership with our organisation is a collaborative exercise aimed at building community engagement and
goodwill for both the sponsor organisation and Spectrum Care.

bequests
Since its inception, Spectrum Care has benefited from legacies and bequests and this tradition has continued
to the present day.
By making a donation through a will, supporters of Spectrum Care’s activities can be part of this tradition
and play a key role in developing Spectrum Care’s capacity as a world-class service provider to the disability
sector.
You’ll also be making a significant contribution toward the lives of people with disabilities now and in the
future. Bequest donations directly assist the people we serve by providing resources and supporting initiatives
to ensure that Spectrum Care continues to help people with disabilities live great lives.
A bequest or endowed gift keeps giving forever and even modest gifts can provide lasting benefits.
Bequests can take a variety of forms:
- Specific bequest – This is a gift of a fixed sum of money, property, shares and/or valuables of various descriptions
- Percentage of estate – As the title would suggest, this is a gift of a specific percentage of your estate
- Residual bequest – This type of gift involves leaving all or a portion of the remaining assets of your estate
after all debts, taxes, fees and other bequests have been paid
- Deferred bequest – This is a gift that provides for any relatives or friends during their lifetimes, but
also benefits Spectrum Care after their deaths
Making a bequest is a powerful way of supporting Spectrum Care, often at a level not possible during your lifetime.
Leave a legacy that lasts – make a difference; make a bequest.

volunteers
Volunteering provides an opportunity to meet people, learn new skills, share existing skills and give
something back to your community.
Spectrum Care is currently in the process of developing our capability to work with volunteers and, while
we are not currently able offer specific opportunities to volunteers, we would be very interested to hear
from you if you are interested in volunteering with our organisation.
As soon as we are able, we will contact prospective volunteers and begin working with them, with the aim of
helping people with disabilities live great lives.
What do volunteers do?
Some of the many ways that volunteers can help members include:
- Assisting Spectrum Care’s service users with recreation and social activities
- Providing support for Spectrum Care's services
- Helping with local fundraising projects
