Social responsibility: Our commitment to the community

“What drew me to PwC and Access Your Potential was the firm’s reputation as a leader in diversity, equity and inclusion — and my professor’s encouragement to take the opportunity and run with it. Before the program, I knew consulting was a career, but I didn’t know all that it entailed. Access Your Potential not only taught me about the field but also how to dig deeper into a client’s issue to help them solve a problem. Getting that initial experience with consulting was pivotal for me. Were it not for this program, my career would have gone in a different direction.”

“I was born and raised in Ukraine, so when the war broke out, my mind and heart were preoccupied daily with loved ones and all those displaced by the war. Because of that, I began to feel removed from my everyday work. I knew I wanted to do more to help those affected. I’m proud that the firm is living out its purpose and values with its continued support of Ukraine. And by joining the firm’s Ukraine PMO, the fundraising, donating and raising awareness I was doing outside of work became part of my day-to-day role. It allowed me to feel fulfilled and take action on what’s important to me.”

“We’ve seen the immense power that corporate America wields to create financial success, product innovation, and professional development. Just imagine applying those superpowers to combat systemic inequality. Launching the fellowship is not a performative statement. It’s an acknowledgment that corporate America can fight against systemic inequality by doing exponentially more than what’s already been done. Racial inequity, in my opinion, is one of the most important problems in today’s society. I’m proud that PwC has founded this fellowship and steered its mission.”
