**As its two-year partnership with Shelter approaches its conclusion, ICT solutions
provider Fujitsu is looking for its next charity partner. Specifically it wishes
to develop a long-term strategic relationship with a charity that aligns to one 
of its five work streams or to its core technology focus.**

It points out that it is a B2B organisation so cannot offer large scale consumer
engagement programmes that some charities might have experience of with other more
consumer-focused corporate supporters.
Nevertheless, it is looking for a partnership
that can:

 * offer exciting engagement opportunities for its staff and partners
 * capitalise on its core expertise
 * help demonstrate how its operates” as a responsible member of Britain’s business
   community”

## ⏎ Fujitsu and Shelter

So far Fujitsu has contributed almost £800,000 to Shelter, and it is still working
on ICT investment in Shelter’s retail network. The housing and homelessness charity
has, according to Fujitsu, taken a lead role in directing the company’s expertise
to where it is needed most and [worked to engage staff across the company](http://www.fujitsu.com/uk/about/local/corporate-responsibility/csr-report/social-action/charity-partner/index.html).
