This year we are hoping to raise a minimum of £100,000 and whilst we recognise individual donations as given above integral to this cause, we also consider corporate sponsorships as key to achieving this goal. Unprecedented interest in the Fireflies offers sponsors an exciting platform for promotions and branding.
