The character of an organization - what it values - can be seen not only by its professional conduct in the marketplace, but also by its role as corporate citizen. Formed in 1998 as a result of the merger of Price Waterhouse and Coopers & Lybrand, the PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC) Foundation is especially proud of our performance in fulfilling this vital role. Through its educational initiatives, the PwC Foundation is the preeminent leader in contributing funds to many of the country's institutions of higher education to support:
- Enhancing the quality and diversity of graduates interested in professional services industry;
- Partnering with the academic community to achieve continuous improvement and lifelong learning in business education and research;
- Creating an effective interface between academia and our organization to provide current and relevant practical information, exposure and experience as an important part of Faculty Development.
These contributions are enhanced by the PwC Foundation's matching gift program, which enables every PricewaterhouseCoopers partner and employee to participate in the PwC Foundation and to support its goals.
