good for society, good for business.

Today, most businesses look beyond their financial bottom line and assume a role as a good corporate citizen with responsibility to contribute to the health and well-being of the communities in which they operate.

This is not only good for society but also for the company as the public and other businesses want to do business with socially conscious companies. The term corporate social responsibility (CSR) relates to the ethical and legal behaviour by organisations in the wider community.

In response, companies of all sizes have adopted standards of sustainability and social responsibility and embraced the triple bottom line, a sustainability-based accounting method that focuses on people, prosperity and planet. In the last 20 years, the number of companies publishing CSR reports has increased significantly.

Sport sponsorships are one of the best ways for a business to create brand awareness, advertise their products and services and support their company's reputation as a valued member of society.

For years businesses have tended to spend their CSR budgets on supporting environmental or arts-based causes but increasingly sport is being seen as a way to meet social and community obligations.

Sport is regarded as a much more influential channel than the arts as it reaches and engages with more people from across the entire social and demographic spectrum.

Sport is an effective CSR medium because it boasts values that any socially responsible business should be striving for. These include fair play, transparency, equal opportunity and good community relations, all things intrinsic to the Sturt Lacrosse Community.
