How PwC can provide support to nonprofits, students and educators

At PwC, our purpose is to build trust in society and solve important problems. We do it every day: Through the choices we make and the actions we take. This includes putting our skills to work to support nonprofits, students and educators.

Explore below to see how we can work together.

Support for nonprofits

We match PwC professionals with nonprofit organizations to help provide support where your organization needs it most.

Non-Profit Externships

Nonprofit organizations can apply for an externship, sponsored by PwC. Managed through Extern Inc, this seven-week remote externship provides your organization with externs that will be introduced to consulting methodologies that can help nonprofits with fundraising research, communication strategies, and impact assessments.

The externs are college students participating in Access Your Potential. Please visit the Access Your Potential website for more details.

Support preparing college students for future careers

We believe access to career opportunities should be a right, not a privilege, which is why we launched Access Your Potential - a commitment to help address the opportunity and employment gaps in society and create a more equitable future for Black and Latino/Hispanic college students, whatever field of study. Explore that and other PwC programs and resources aimed at helping tomorrow’s workforce stand out in a competitive job market and advance their future careers.

Access Your Potential is an ecosystem of learning and support for Black and Latino/Hispanic college students as they begin to prepare for their future careers. What can students explore when they sign up?

  • Career Readiness curriculum to help students better understand who they are, focus on where they want to go, and consider how to approach the career search process.

It can be comforting for students to connect virtually with a mentor or trusted resource to discuss their educational and future career goals. Through platforms like CareerVillage.org, students can ask questions answered by professionals across the US, including PwC.
