Our purpose is progress
Making an impact that matters
At Deloitte, our purpose is to make an impact that matters. We lead with purpose to help enact positive change for our people, clients, and communities. We do this through our work with clients that enables them to drive impact and value in their organizations, as well through our own investments, commitments, and actions across areas that help drive positive outcomes for our communities.
Our focus is strategic
180 years ago, Deloitte was founded with the mission of instilling trust in capital markets during the birth of professional accounting. While we’ve since expanded into other businesses, we remain steadfast in our commitment to driving impact while maintaining trust and confidence in society and its institutions.
Our purpose is aligned with our Shared Values and is a part of everything we do. Through our work with clients, we help organizations across industries and disciplines deliver value to the people and communities they serve. This is a core part of our own organizational purpose.
Another core part of our organizational purpose includes the investments and commitments Deloitte has made across areas aimed at creating positive impact in our organization and in our communities.
-
Sustainability
Driving sustainable practices throughout our organization to reduce our carbon footprint and finding thoughtful and innovative ways for others to approach sustainable solutions.
-
Opportunity
Unlocking access to economic opportunity and family-sustaining jobs through various initiatives across areas including education and workforce development, entrepreneurship, and health.
-
Trust
Living our values consistently through responsible business practices and setting the tone at the top through practicing ethical leadership and upholding our Shared Values.
Our approach through social impact
In 2022, Deloitte committed $1.5 billion over 10 years to social impact investments to help increase social and economic prosperity in the communities where we live and work, and these commitments are a key part of how we bring our purpose to life in our communities. We are creating impact every day through ongoing societal and community philanthropy efforts, through relationships and investments with nonprofits, and through moments of coming together in our communities like Impact Day.
This is how we continue to make an impact that matters in the world we share.
“At Deloitte, purpose is deeply embedded in all that we do—from how we serve our clients and show up for each other every day, to how we serve the communities in which we live and work. Together, we can make a lasting impact and pave the way for a better future.”
