Accenture

For years, Accenture has partnered with United Way of Metropolitan Dallas to make a broad and meaningful impact on North Texas. The company works to drive positive change in the communities in which its employees live and work, and its Dallas team members regularly support United Way’s mission through volunteer projects and fundraising drives.

Accenture is also a company that embraces innovation in both its work and its philanthropic efforts. The company is a key collaborator on the United Way Social Innovation Accelerator, which uplifts the work of social entrepreneurs with innovative solutions to systemic challenges in the areas of education, income and health.

With Accenture’s support, over the years we have collaboratively grown the Social Innovation Accelerator into a program that unifies the community to address North Texas’ most pressing societal issues through mentorship, innovative thinking and foundational funding support. The partnership enables Accenture to continually make a lasting impact in the community through the exciting and ever-changing lens of social innovation.

Together with United Way of Metropolitan Dallas, we bring a passion for innovation to life and create a greater good through the Social Innovation Accelerator. At Accenture, we believe social innovation offers a unique opportunity to help our community solve critical issues around income, education and health in new ways.

Partnership Spotlight: Leading Change Through Social Innovation

Accenture invests in social impact programs that advance progress toward a more inclusive society where everyone can thrive. The company has been a supporter of our Social Innovation Accelerator since the early years, when the program was known as GroundFloor. Initially, Accenture consultants volunteered as mentors for the program; then in 2017, the company expanded its involvement by supporting The Pitch, the program’s culminating live competition.

In the years since, Accenture has become the signature sponsor of the Social Innovation Accelerator, a partnership that has transformed the program and expanded its impact. Over the years we have collaboratively grown the Social Innovation Accelerator into a program that unifies the community to address North Texas’ most pressing societal issues through mentorship, innovative thinking and foundational funding support. The partnership enables Accenture to continually make a lasting impact in the community through the exciting and ever-changing lens of social innovation.
