We’re helping build an economy that works for all

We are committed to advancing economic inclusion.

Through our client work and targeted $2 billion commitment to social responsibility, we’re promoting job creation, skilling, and education. Our research and insights on empowering those in need guide our giving and pro bono programs, and we’re maximizing global impact by partnering with nonprofits.

This includes efforts we’re scaling, such as our Forward program that equips young talent in over 70 countries with the skills to succeed; our partnership with Generation, a global nonprofit that has trained over 100,000 people for new jobs; and work with clients like JobsOhio, with whom we worked to create or protect 1 million jobs in Ohio.

Our work to advance economic inclusion is part of our commitment to accelerate sustainable and inclusive growth.
