The association of a for-profit company with a non-profit organization or government agency, to promote the company's products or services while raising money or awareness for the non-profit or agency. Cause-related marketing is generally thought of as distinct from corporate philanthropy because the corporate dollars involved are not outright gifts to a nonprofit organization and, therefore, not tax-deductible.
