RSM US Foundation Announces $58.8 Million in Total Giving, Reinforcing Commitment to Empower Youth

CHICAGO – (April 6, 2026) – RSM US LLP (“RSM”) – the leading provider of assurance, tax and consulting services for the middle market – today announced that the RSM US Foundation has contributed $58.8 million to date, reinforcing the firm’s long-standing commitment to expanding opportunity for youth and  helping prepare the next generation to thrive in an evolving workforce and economy.

Through targeted investments in community-based youth programs focused on education, hunger, housing and health, the RSM US Foundation is helping to remove barriers to opportunity while building the next generation of talent critical to strong communities. In 2025 alone, the RSM US Foundation contributed $7.3 million, expanding support for national and local nonprofit relationships focused on advancing education access, career readiness and youth stability. A central focus of the Foundation’s impact is its continued investment in hands-on, real-world learning experiences that help students build practical skills and confidence early. In December 2025, the Foundation renewed its commitment to the Junior Achievement (JA) Stock Market Challenge with a $1.35 million investment, expanding access to experiential learning that introduces students to financial decision-making and the fundamentals.

Guided by RSM employees, a significant portion of the Foundation’s annual impact is focused on supporting youth through the Power of Love, Dollars for Doers and Community Impact Fund programs, along with expanded scholarship opportunities for college students and financial education initiatives delivered through local JA programs.

Driving impact through national and local partnerships

Additional funding in 2025, along with commitments for 2026, supported organizations addressing critical community needs, such as:

• $253,000 to Boys & Girls Clubs of America’s Life & Workforce Readiness Program
• $130,000 in 2025 to support RSM Shot at College, with an additional $100,000 committed for 2026
• $100,000 to Active Minds to advance youth mental health initiatives
• $100,000 to the American Red Cross to strengthen disaster planning and preparedness for domestic and international response efforts

Expanding access through scholarships and education

The Foundation also continued to prioritize access to education through scholarships and academic partnerships. In 2025, the Foundation awarded more than $900,000 in combined scholarships and plans to increase that support in 2026, reinforcing its commitment to expanding education access. Support for local JA programs – funded by both the firm and the Foundation - totaled $686,000 in 2025, extending financial education opportunities to students across communities.

“These investments reflect our belief that strong communities are built by expanding access to opportunity and supporting youth where our people live and work, especially at a time when many young people are facing increasing barriers to education, stability and career access,” said Donna Sciarappa, president and chair of the RSM US Foundation. “We believe our business has a responsibility to lead by investing in solutions that expand opportunity, strengthen workforce readiness and help build more resilient communities over the long term.”

Looking ahead, the RSM US Foundation remains committed to expanding its impact through increased scholarship funding, renewed support for national nonprofit relationships, and ongoing enhancements and support to experiential learning programs that help students build confidence, skills and career pathways.
