Partnerships and Resources
Offer a resource, service, introduction, or collaboration.
We work with partners when there is a clear purpose, a person responsible, and a practical benefit to the work.
What partnership can look like
Four useful kinds of support
A proposal can combine more than one type of support, but the first message only needs to explain the clearest offer.
Tools and practical resources
- Software, workspace, or equipment
- Help with day-to-day work
- Relevant information or resources shared with permission
Funding and practical support
- Project funding or sponsorship
- Grants
- Clearly defined financial help, equipment, or other resources
Introductions and collaboration
- Trusted introductions
- Partner referrals
- Joint projects or access to relevant expertise
We do not say that funding, equipment, or other support is tax-deductible unless that has been checked and approved separately.
What helps a proposal
Clear purpose before commitment
We look for a clear purpose, a responsible contact, the right permissions, honest expectations, and terms that protect everyone involved.
See how ECL makes decisions and protects people- A clear, mutual purpose and responsible contact
- A written description of the work, responsibilities, information handling, and how the work ends
- No hidden obligation, misleading endorsement, or exploitative labor
- Explicit consent before public names, logos, testimonials, or relationship descriptions
Using names and logos
Names, logos, and public recommendations require permission
We do not publish a partner’s name, logo, public recommendation, or description of the relationship without clear permission for that use. Sending a proposal does not create a partnership or allow either side to announce one.
