As a global network focused on driving Corporate Social Responsibilities (CSR) and Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) initiatives, many Firms have found it useful to create a ‘foundation’ that could support and strengthen their charitable ambitions.
The RSM US Foundation
Over the past six years, the RSM US Foundation has donated nearly $29 million to help young people in the North American markets where RSM operates. The foundation’s largest fundraising programme is Power of Love, part of The RSM Classic, a PGA TOUR tournament hosted by the Davis Love Foundation, which supports charitable organisations across North America, India and El Salvador. The foundation supports many other initiatives in North America, including:
- Junior Achievement, a nonprofit that focuses on in-school and after-school education programmes for at-risk youth.
- Dollars for Doers, a grant-matching programme that encourages employees to volunteer with charitable organisations of their choice that support the next generation of leaders.
- The University Giving Match programme, that matches RSM employees fundraising efforts to create scholarships for colleges and universities important to RSM’s people.
The RSM UK Foundation
Set up in 2018, the RSM UK Foundation seeks to better its communities through well-being initiatives, environmental causes, and education programmes for underprivileged youth. The Foundation donated over £700,000 in 2022 to charities and anticipates exceeding £1,000,000 in donations this year.
The Foundation supports over 50 local charities along with national charities, including:
- The Duke of Edinburgh Awards, an organisation that empowers marginalised young people to learn new skills, overcome obstacles, and build confidence.
- Anthony Nolan, a charity that makes lifesaving connections between patients in need and incredible strangers ready to donate their stem cells .
- Trees for Cities is a UK charity focused on the environment which aims to plant urban trees and create greener cities. - EDGA (formerly the European Disabled Golf Association) a nonprofit, volunteer organisation, active in the promotion and delivery of opportunities to sample, participate and compete.in golf.
The RSM France Foundation
The principal aim of the RSM France Foundation is working toward the professional integration of disadvantaged, vulnerable people into the workplace, and the inclusion of people with disabilities.
The Foundation was started in 2019 and serves roughly ten charities at the national and local levels, including:
- Deux mains en main is a charity whose goal is to promote sign language.
- Refugee Food, a charitable organisation that sets up workshops for refugees to help them understand French labour laws and help prepare them for job interviews.
- Viens Voir Mon Taf, which encourages high school students from educational priority areas to think about what they want to do as a career.
