Healthy Communities

Supporting our communities through health, wellness and mentoring

At KPMG, we collaborate with nonprofits committed to strengthening minds and bodies to help build stronger and healthier communities.  With a shared focus on health, wellness and mentoring, together we are improving and changing lives.  

In 2018, KPMG launched national nonprofit networks comprised of partners and employees who serve on local boards or executive leadership teams.  These networks are committed to making a positive impact in our communities through advocating for the organization's mission, supporting priority initiatives, and engaging our people.
