Social responsibility: Our commitment to the community

We’re striving to address equity and opportunity gaps in society.

Investing in societal equity and building trust 

Guided by our purpose to build trust in society and solve important problems, our community of solvers know we have an obligation to the communities in which we live and work. At a time in which establishing trust is more important than ever, we’ve worked to not only support our communities directly but to empower our people to promote initiatives that align with their personal values. As we work to build that trust, we recognize that collaborating with other responsible business leaders striving for similar goals helps to benefit society as a whole.

Taking action in our communities 

We’re working hard, through our own investments and by enabling our people to take action, to bring equity and opportunity to our communities. Here are some of PwC’s initiatives:

We offer our people up to 40 hours to use their professional skills to tackle social challenges through (virtual and in-person) problem-solving workshops, pro bono projects, serving as board directors, mentoring and other nonprofit support. 

Skills for Society

Access Your Potential, our $125 million investment to support 25,000 Black and Latino/Hispanic college students, aims to create more opportunities for students by providing access to high-demand digital and career readiness training and upskilling, mentorship and pathways to start their careers.

Access Your Potential

PwC Foundation 

For over 20 years, the PwC Foundation has invested in emerging solutions to society’s greatest challenges in education and humanitarianism as well as the people of PwC in times of need. These continued efforts to drive equity at scale enabled the Foundation to reach a major milestone in 2023 of nearly $210 million in grants and investments given since 2001.
