As one of the leading professional services organizations in the U.S., Deloitte’s strategic approach to community involvement puts the talent of its people at the center of its outreach efforts by strengthening nonprofit capacity and sharing new insights to advance corporate community involvement.

“Deloitte has sharpened its focus to support college access and job readiness,” said National Community Involvement Director Evan Hochberg, Deloitte Services LP. “United Way is also purposeful about advancing critical education goals.”

In 2009, Deloitte was recognized nationally for raising more than $20 million and having the most Tocqueville Society members, which are individuals who give $10,000 or more annually to United Way.

Deloitte piloted a nationwide education-focused United Way workplace campaign in 2010 to support its organizational commitment to reduce high school dropout rates, improve college access and enrollment, and career readiness.

“Deloitte has made education and community involvement a company priority,” said Brian A. Gallagher, President and CEO, United Way Worldwide. “As part of Deloitte’s $20 million campaign, including 826 Tocqueville givers, Deloitte raised nearly $1 million for Deloitte/United Way education collaboratives around the country. That’s a tremendous investment.”

Deloitte personnel from across the United States spent Deloitte’s IMPACT Day participating in more than 800 volunteer projects nationwide. Regionally, 1,800 volunteers participated in 50 projects with local organizations including Nevada Food Bank, 3 Square, St. Jude’s Ranch, Boys Hope, and Girls Hope.

In southern Nevada, Deloitte surpassed its 2009 campaign goal by 33%, with two Tocqueville Society members and two Women’s Leadership Council members.
