Supporting student success

High schools

Business, Technology, and Engineering Exploration and Skill Building

Through collaborations with education programs, academic institutions, and nonprofit organizations, the Deloitte Foundation helps prepare students for the future of work in industries related to professional services.

As one example, the Foundation is collaborating with a national nonprofit organization that helps high school students gain foundational technology skills and explore the possibilities of a STEM career.

Virtual Mentoring

The Virtual Mentoring Program leverages an online platform hosted by a college and career readiness nonprofit organization that connects Deloitte professionals with high school and college students with financial need to help them prepare for college, careers, and a world of opportunity.

The program, which is funded by the Deloitte Foundation, helps students prepare for and persist through high school and college and then transition to a career. Students who qualify for financial assistance can opt into free, one-to-one virtual mentoring to help them navigate the college application process and provides broad guidance on their college and career paths. To date, Deloitte professionals and retired Deloitte Partners/Principals/Managing Directors have mentored more than 13,000 students.

High School Scholarships

The Deloitte Foundation supports high school students from under-resourced communities and/or who are first in their families to attend college to pursue degrees in business, technology, engineering, and other related fields.

For example, the Foundation has provided grants totaling more than $7 million over five years to fund college scholarships for graduating seniors at a select network of high schools across the country to help students stay on track with their education and career aspirations.
