Summertime Impact
As we approach the official last day of summer and begin to feel a bit of crispness in the air, I’m proudly reflecting on what an impactful summer it was at 毕马威 .
In July we launched our inaugural KPMG Empower High School Internship Experience. This innovative Community Impact program supported the firm’s commitment to equitable access to career and development opportunities. 177 students in 11 KPMG markets participated in the program and were immersed in sessions and engaging experiences about personal development, relationship management, college and career readiness, and firm and industry knowledge. This would not have been possible without our nonprofit collaborators including All Stars Project, Inc. , NABA INC. , Big Brothers Big Sisters of America , Cristo Rey Network , Junior Achievement USA , and NAF .
Additionally, KPMG held its second annual Community Impact Day on Tuesday, August 1. It was an amazing opportunity for our people to connect with each other and our communities to demonstrate our values in action. More than 21,000 employees contributed over 60,000 volunteer hours teaming up with approximately 500 nonprofit organizations across the country.
I enjoyed the opportunity to share insights about our firm’s impact with Accounting Today and CNBC . I invite you to read about how KPMG made a difference in communities across the country this past summer:
I’m looking forward to seeing what we accomplish, Together, For Better, as we head into the Fall season and look to 2024.
