The Founding 100

There will only ever be one first hundred.

The organisations and people who help establish Chapter One.

In brief

Why the legacy matters

Join the Founding 100 and help establish a long-term foundation for women and girls in sport, community and opportunity in Warwickshire.

Primary topic: women's sport sponsorship Warwickshire

women's sport sponsorship Warwickshire — Women’s sport sponsorship Warwickshire can do more than place a logo beside a project. The Founding 100 is designed to recognise the organisations and individuals who choose to support Warwickshire Valkyries Foundation during its formative chapter and help turn an ambitious female-first vision into a credible long-term institution.

Why founding support is different

Founding support belongs to a particular moment. Later partners may contribute to a larger and more established organisation, while the Founding 100 are associated with the period in which the foundations are being created. That distinction is why the programme places emphasis on legacy and permanent recognition.

A relationship built around purpose

A strong partnership should make sense for both sides. Businesses may be interested in women’s sport, community impact, employee engagement, social value, local visibility or long-term association with the project. The Foundation should understand those objectives rather than offer identical relationships to every organisation.

Recognition with substance

The developing legacy concept includes a Founding 100 directory and proposed permanent recognition through features such as the Founders’ Wall and Founders’ Book. Final physical features depend on the development of Valkyries House, but the digital record can begin earlier.

Transparency about what support enables

Support should be connected to clear priorities. As budgets, programmes and capital plans are confirmed, the Foundation intends to explain how funding is allocated and what milestones are being pursued. That is more useful than making broad claims that cannot yet be evidenced.

A network as well as a list

The Founding 100 can become a community of organisations and individuals with different expertise. Connections may support introductions, professional advice, volunteering, employment pathways, events and wider collaboration where there is a genuine fit.

Long-term stewardship

Founding status should be protected. Records need to be accurate, partner information maintained and recognition delivered consistently. The Foundation’s administration tools are being designed so the Founding 100 can be managed as a permanent part of organisational history rather than a short campaign.

Our approach to accuracy

This page describes the Foundation’s current direction. Proposed facilities, programmes and partnerships are identified as proposals until they are confirmed. As the project develops, this page should be updated so visitors can distinguish ambition from delivered activity.
