A final category of funding available to SSPs are corporate gifts. There are many kinds of corporate giving including:

• Grants – direct contributions given by corporations, often handled internally.
• Community grants – which are often handled by a foundation established by the corporation and generally given to organizations in and around the places the company is physically located.
• Employee volunteer grants – where employers give to places their employees volunteer.
• Employee matching grants – businesses match donations that their employees make.
• Employee volunteer programs – businesses pay employees for the time they spend volunteering.
• Sponsorship – where businesses essentially advertise themselves by paying for an event or charitable work.
• In-kind donations – businesses donate goods in lieu of money.
• Pro-bono work – businesses donate services in lieu of money.

Harm reduction organizations have occasionally received all these forms of corporate giving. It may come as no surprise that harm reduction agencies have had especially good luck with pharmaceutical- and healthcare-related industries and small businesses in their home areas.
