Corporate Partnerships
Partner with Purpose
A partnership with BKFA connects your workplace to a global effort to make childbirth cleaner and safer. From hands-on volunteering and fundraising to program sponsorship and long-term partnerships, there are many ways your organisation can help us create safer births and brighter futures for women and babies around the world.
Assembly Days
Our popular Assembly Days offer a hands-on corporate volunteering experience where staff work together to pack Clean Birth Kits. It’s a simple, fun and rewarding team-building exercise where employees can step away from the day-to-day, work together and see the tangible impact they’ve created. Distributed through trusted global health partners at no cost to the women who use them, the kits help support safer, more hygienic births and reduce the risk of infection for mothers and newborns.
Assembly Days are ideal for:
- corporate volunteering programs
- team-building and workplace culture initiatives
- organisations with Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) goals
- purpose-led events that can be run in the office or off-site.
We provide all materials, guidance and support to make your event easy to run, and worthwhile for everyone involved.
Take your impact further
An Assembly Day can be the start of something great. Organisations can deepen their involvement through workplace fundraising, direct giving, maternal health program sponsorship or an ongoing corporate partnership.
Bring your team together around a workplace fundraiser or challenge, match employee donations, make a direct contribution, or invite your customers to get involved through a campaign, purchase or point of sale.
Whether it’s a one-off initiative or an ongoing commitment, we can help turn your organisation’s support into meaningful impact for women and babies around the world.
Invest directly in programs delivered with our field partners in communities where access to maternal healthcare is limited.
Your support could help train traditional birth attendants and community health workers, provide maternal health education for women, support literacy programs or help future midwives gain the qualifications to care for women in their own communities.
It’s an opportunity to support safer births today while helping strengthen maternal healthcare for the future.
For organisations looking to make a longer-term commitment, our Bronze, Silver and Gold corporate partnerships provide a pathway to deepen your involvement and grow your impact over time.
Corporate partners can combine financial support with meaningful employee engagement, while gaining opportunities to share the impact of their partnership through BKFA’s website, social media, Annual Report and events. As partnerships grow, opportunities can also include tailored impact reporting, presentations and collaborative media opportunities.

Assembly Day Details
Whether you have a team of 10 or 100, we can design an event to suit your needs. Simply contact our Assembly Day Coordinator, or complete the booking form at the bottom of this page to register your interest!
Your team will assemble Clean Birth Kits containing six essential items: soap, gloves, plastic sheeting, cord ties, gauze and a sterile blade.
It’s a practical, purposeful activity with a clear outcome: every kit packed helps support a safer birth for a mother and baby in a low-resource setting.
Clean Birth Kits cost AU$5 each to produce and distribute to the women who will use them.
The minimum quantity of kits for an Assembly Day is 200, at a cost of $1000, with additional increments of 200 available.
As a general rule, we recommend ordering enough kits for each team member at a rate of 10 per hour.
For example, if you have 50 staff and wish to run a 2 hour event, we recommend 1000 kits at a cost of $5000.
While our offices are based in SA, Assembly Days can be held anywhere across Australia!
Most groups hold their Assembly Days on-site in their own venue, but we can also offer some recommendations for off-site locations if you require. We’ve seen Assembly Days held in boardrooms, warehouses, gymnasiums and more.
You will need enough tables and chairs for the number of staff attending, plus additional tables to prepare supplies on. Tables should be able to be sanitised prior to use.
The kit components will be delivered in the weeks prior to your event date, and collected by courier upon completion. You will need somewhere to store the supplies and finished kits pre and post-event.
Events will be supported by our dedicated Assembly Day Coordinator, who will provide email support in the lead-up to your event date.
You will be provided with an Assembly Day Manual and supporting marketing materials to ensure your event is a success.
After the event, the boxed kits will be collected via courier, and returned to our warehouse for distribution to our Field Partners.
The Clean Birth Kit Assembly process is a highly tangible activity, offering participants a deep sense of purpose and benefit as a result of their efforts.
The procedure is simple, and clearly outlined, but flexible enough to allow smaller teams to develop their own approach to packing. This means there is plenty of opportunity for groups to design and negotiate a system, improve on processes and provide some friendly rivalry as the completed kits stack up.
The activity also allows for plenty of discussion and interaction between attendees!
Corporate volunteering with BKFA supports organisations to meet Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) objectives through a clear and measurable impact.
Assembly Days align with key United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, including:
- SDG 3: Good Health and Wellbeing
- SDG 5: Gender Equality
- SDG 12: Responsible Consumption and Production
Organisations receive tangible outcomes, including:
- Number of kits assembled
- Contribution to safer births globally
- Stories and updates from field partners
All of our birth kits are environmentally friendly. The plastic bag and sheets are treated with an organic compound and are biodegradable in microbe rich environments, such as landfill.
As an organisation, we aim to review the social and environmental impact of the birth kits annually, part of our commitment to better understand our impact to the global environment.
