Corporate Partners
52 Lives has partnered with businesses to bring the 52 Lives concept to the workplace. The idea came about after we were approached by chief executives who were inspired by 52 Lives and wanted to adopt the idea.
We set-up and manage a corporate version of the 52 Lives concept. The companies we work with help to change a life in their community every month, encouraging staff involvement in their projects. It creates a very tangible and personal way for staff to connect with their organisation's CSR initiatives.
If you would like to find out more about how this could work for your company, please get in touch.
Orchard Wealth Management is a Jersey-based company established in 2007 by chief executive, Richard Harwood.
Richard was a long-time supporter of 52 Lives, and wanted to bring the concept to his own organisation.
Orchard 12 Lives launched in 2013, and staff, friends and shareholders of the company are now helping to change someone's life every month.
"Through 52 Lives, we all became acutely aware of how lucky we are to live on a pleasant island, working with colleagues we like in an industry we enjoy. This is our way of sharing that good fortune with others who are not so fortunate. We make no judgement as to how someone came to need help, just hoping that a little bit of support and assistance will let them know that there are people out there who are rooting for them and wish them well."

Crick Auto Group in Australia comprises 12 dealerships, located from Tweed Heads, Rockhampton, South Brisbane and 8 sites on the Sunshine Coast in Queensland.
Co-owners of Cricks, Garry Crick and John Eastham, have always believed in the importance of giving back to the community, and were inspired by the 52 Lives concept. They launched Cricks 12 Lives in 2013, and have since been changing the life of someone in their community every month.
Garry and John explain their decision to launch Cricks 12 Lives...
"Firstly and most obviously, it is a chance to make a direct difference to 12 people's lives. What could be better than that? And secondly, we wanted something our staff could have a direct involvement in. When we draw a cheque to charity, it is always made possible by the hard work of our team, but sometimes it is hard for staff to see this connection. Cricks 12 Lives gives them the chance to be directly involved at a more personal level."
