Recent years have seen cause marketing move from a niche pursuit to a truly popular approach among major corporations and brands, reaching near ubiquity in some industries. Old style CSR has largely been replaced by a desire to add a bigger purpose at the heart of organisations. 

Charities, NGOs and public sector bodies have also continued to innovate and produce powerful, effective campaigns for their own causes. 

Supported by industry leading brands PRWeek, Campaign and Third Sector, the Awards recognise campaigns that use creative ideas successfully to further positive causes, and also acknowledge the organisations behind them. The Awards are open to agencies, brands, public sector bodies, charities and NGOs throughout EMEA.

With the rise of cause marketing and social purpose showing no signs of slowing, winning a Purpose Award is a perfect way to demonstrate your organisation's ability to excel in this crucial area.
