10x10 2019 IMPACT REPORT

10x10 CORPORATE - CREDIT SUISSE
Credit Suisse launched the first ever corporate 10x10 event in October
2019. A passionate and talented Project Committee of Credit Suisse
staff from Sydney and Brisbane chose three remarkable grassroots
charities, built an emotional event experience and introduced a
whole new way of philanthropy for their Australian organisation.
The emotional and inspiring stories told by The Carly Ryan
Foundation, Kids Giving Back & Harrison Riedel made a huge
impact on the audience, rewarding these grassroots charities with a
share of over $AUD25k. The diligent work of the Credit Suisse Project
Committee to identify these emerging charities was well worth
the effort of the three month campaign and we thank all three for
partnering with 10x10 in leading the way for corporate 10x10 events -
we can’t wait to see more businesses get on board with giving back!
Special mention and thank you to the amazing Credit Suisse Project
Committee, Sophie Robertson, Melissa Cooper, April Lowis, Anna
Milne, Tom Butcher, Martin Stavnsbjerg, Andrew McKillop, CFA,
Matthew O’Donnell, Andrew Holland, Nancy Chen & Chloe Lim.
From Kids Giving Back:
The 10x10Credit Suisse program has funded 3 new workstations for us
in our new Hub. These workstations will, over the next 12 months, help
an estimated 4,500 children produce approximately 10,000 meals for
people experiencing homelessness and creating the next Generation
of Generosity. We call it the Ripple Effect...your funding, helping
children, to help vulnerable people, and then creating a kinder
and more altruistic world.
Kids Giving Back highly recommends 10x10 to charities, it is a fun
night that achieved great outcomes quickly and efficiently. Being a
grassroots organisation with limited resources the 10x10 model is
really effective and efficient, plus the funds raised can be promptly
and effectively put to good use.
