IAA Corporate Partners
IAA does not receive state funding in relation to the services it provides. It depends on the generosity of the public and corporate support. For this, we are extremely grateful.
In the past, IAA has benefitted from sponsorship arrangements with (or generous donations from) O2, DHL, The Dublin Airport Authority, Raymond Weil, The Hilton Foundation, Swords Pavilions Shopping Centre, The Iris O'Brien Foundation, Sean Dunne of Mountbrook Homes and M&S Ireland.
We were recently delighted to welcome aboard Expert Electrical and Just Mobile who joined us in June of 2010 to support our 32 Marathon Challenge.
This support has helped the charity make significant inroads into the service deficits that exist in Ireland for people with Autism.
DHL
DHL has chosen Irish Autism Action as their charity of choice. DHL's focus on selected industry sectors means customers benefit from working with specialists - not just in logistics, but also in their particular marketplace. With their industry-leading sector solutions, they provide our customers with real competitive advantage.
Applied Materials 
Irish Autism Action has been chosen as Applied Materials charity of choice in 2011. Applied Materials, Inc. is the global leader in providing innovative equipment, services and software to enable the manufacture of advanced semiconductor, flat panel display and solar photovoltaic products.

Xtra-vision 
Irish Autism Action were chosen earlier in 2011 by Xtra-vision to be their charity of choice. Xtra-vision is Ireland's largest chain of video rental stores. They operate over 200 stores across both the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland. The company has a workforce of almost 1600 employees and offers DVD, Blu-Ray movies and games for both rent and sale along with music CDs and video games for various platforms.
Expert 
Expert, Ireland’s largest electrical retailer came on board as a generous sponsor to the 32 marathons event in June 2010.
IAA have since set up recycling depots in each Expert shop in Ireland to facilitate recycling of mobile phones, laptops, MP3 players etc. This is being done in conjunction with BPI Telecom.
All proceeds from the recycling will be given to Irish Autism Action.
Marks and Spencer Ireland 
Marks and Spencer have been hugely generous to IAA in the past – providing us with great support for The Keith Duffy Masquerade Ball in 2009, The Samuel L Jackson Ball in February 2010 and the 32 marathons Challenge in summer 2010. We are extremely grateful to them and have found them to be really accommodating and a pleasure to work with.

Connacht Gold 
We are pleased to announce that Connacht Gold has selected Irish Autism Action to be its Charity of the Year for 2010. Connacht Gold has always been very supportive of good causes in the community and this year they wish to help support local autism initiatives in the North West region. As part of the partnership, they will make a direct financial contribution and hope it can be supplemented through staff fundraising efforts in 2010.
Irish Autism Action hope to work with local support groups in the area who have various projects that they are interested in progressing. In addition they hope to assist individual families through their national diagnostic and assessment service and advocacy services.
Some initiatives and ideas have already been identified (by individual parents, Rainchild group, Sligo parents support network and Connacht Gold themselves) and forwarded to Irish Autism Action.
Please contact Colette Charles, IAA Fundraising Officer if you have any fund-raising ideas or events that Connacht Gold staff might be able to get involved in - they have staff in Galway, Roscommon, Sligo, Longford, Leitrim and Mayo.
Lagan Tile 
The Lagan group have always been great supporters of Irish Autism Action and it’s endeavours over the past 5 years. More recently, a subsidiary, Lagan Tile supported the 32 marathons Challenge in summer 2010 and IAA are extremely grateful for their support. We look forward to working with them again the future.
BPI Telecom 
BPI has partnered with Irish Autism Action to offer us a fundraising solution. BPI specialise in developing and implementing unique campaigns to aid the collection of old and used mobile phones. The phones are received into BPI where they are graded, the majority are refurbished and sold on to emerging markets. BPI are currently running a schools program for IAA where they appeal to children in primary schools in Ireland to bring in their old mobile phones and in turn, they are rewarding the children’s efforts by offering them incentives such as iTouches, Laptops and interactive white boards. BPI have partnered with Expert Electrical stores so that old mobile phones can be deposited in a recycling depot set up in each store. All funds raised through this recycling initiative will go to Irish Autism Action.
