Introduction
KPMG in India has a strong legacy of improving communities and making change happen. We use our skills and resources to find sustainable solutions to some of the most pressing issues. The firm’s Corporate Citizenship programme works towards sustainable development in communities and brings about a change by working with schools, colleges and organisations that align with our focus on lifelong learning.
Our approach at corporate citizenship is to build and support programmes that range from investing in disaster relief, focused support at schools and green initiatives – all of which are done with the support from our people volunteering in our initiatives.
As always, our people continue to be the driving force behind our programmes. In 2019-20, staff of all KPMG entities operating in India, along with their families, volunteered over 86,000 hours in our various initiatives like mentoring and training students, reading and storytelling sessions under KPMG’s Family for Literacy (KFFL) programme, cataloguing books in libraries, organising carnivals, tree plantation drives and accompanying children on field trips and excursions, among others.
Mentoring students of Aspire programme
As part of our flagship programme – Aspire, we support the education and overall development of the girl students from our partner schools. Along with conducting virtual sessions on life skills, soft skills and spoken English, we are utilising online platforms to conduct regular mentoring and counselling sessions for the students.
Senior women leaders from the firm are mentors to the girls and provide them guidance on building a career. In 2020-21, we have over 60 women leaders from the firm mentoring over 260 Aspire girls.

Online Coaching
Our volunteers have been conducting regular online coaching for students across grades from NGO run schools with an objective to strengthen their concepts and clear doubts. They use creative ways such as quizzes, games or worksheets to engage with students and make this a fun-filled experience for them.
