LBG is the internationally recognised standard for measuring and evaluating a corporation’s community investment. This allows companies to account for their total community investment using standard definitions and valuations, therefore providing internal reporting on performance and comparison against other companies.

In 2005 the LBG model was introduced to Australia and New Zealand and has since grown to over 50 members. Currently consisting of over 250 companies internationally, LBG members work together as a community to:

• Enhance global corporate community investment (CCI) measurement standards
• Benchmark their community investment, and share information and knowledge to develop best practice in the corporate community

In 2011, the Australian and New Zealand LBG membership reported:

• $259 million in community contributions
• $392 as the average contribution per employee
• 51,832 employees volunteered in paid company time
• Contributions equivalent to 0.60% of pre tax profit
• Contributions equivalent to 0.08% of total revenue
• $114 million in facilitated third party contributions
