When Business Becomes a Force for Good

What if your business did more than just deliver results?

What if every sale, every service, every success… created a ripple of good in the world?

Since October last year, RGH has been proving that this isn’t just a feel-good idea, it’s a real, measurable, powerful way to do business. Through our partnership with B1G1, we’ve woven giving into the very fabric of how we operate. The impact has been both humbling and transformative.

In less than a year, we’ve made over 8,000 positive impacts across the globe, simply by linking our everyday business activities to causes that change lives.

This is what that looked like in just one month:

• 1,809 days of access to life-saving water
• 569 days of education provided, along with 200 educational support tools
• 98 days of shelter for homeless children and families
• 61 days of medical support, including 2 life-saving vaccines
• 19 meals provided to orphaned and SEN children
• 2 tangerine trees planted to help a family build a sustainable income

These aren’t just statistics on a dashboard. These are stories of survival, hope, and dignity, made possible by ordinary business actions.

And that’s the point.

Giving doesn’t have to be loud to be powerful. It doesn’t require a separate campaign or a PR headline. It can be a rhythm embedded into the heartbeat of your company. A quiet, consistent force that flows through every transaction, every milestone, every client win.

Why does this matter?

Because business is evolving, and the expectations placed on organisations by employees, customers, and the world are evolving, too.

People no longer want to work for a company. They want to work with one that stands for something, one that means something.

As B1G1 put it so well:
“Your employees don’t just want a job. They want to matter.”

And the research supports this shift:

• Employees who participate in workplace giving are twice as engaged and 57% less likely to leave.
• 70% of consumers now prefer to buy from brands that actively give back.

Purpose isn’t a perk. It’s a powerful driver of performance, loyalty, and connection. And increasingly, it’s a defining trait of businesses that thrive.

What we’ve learned

1. Make giving automatic, not optional.
   At RGH, impact is built into our day-to-day operations. Signing a new client, supporting a candidate, or filling a role triggers support for causes that matter. Giving becomes a natural extension of our success, not a separate initiative.
2. Keep it visible and measurable.
   We track every impact. We share it with our team. We celebrate it together. And when people can see the tangible difference their work is making, something shifts. They show up with more purpose, more pride, more heart.
3. Make it personal.
   We offer a range of causes for our partners and team members to support; from clean water to education, sustainability to shelter – ensuring that the impact resonates on a personal level.

A message to fellow leaders

If you’re a business owner, leader, or someone in a position to influence, this is your invitation.

To think beyond quarterly goals and bottom lines.
To build something that leaves more than just a financial footprint.
To lead with intention and create a legacy that matters.

Because when your company’s success fuels real-world impact, you’re not just building a brand.

You’re building hope.
You’re restoring dignity.
You’re creating opportunities where none existed before.

This should be the new normal, not the exception.

We should all be doing business differently.
We should all be doing business better.
