The Accenture Foundation concentrates on large-scale, rapid international humanitarian response, prioritizing emergency relief for children affected by disasters. Its public giving here shows a one-time, substantial grant directed to a major international NGO to support earthquake relief in Turkey and Syria.
A defining feature of Accenture Foundation Inc is its repeated support for emergency relief tied to earthquakes and other crises, with several large grants directed to established humanitarian organizations. The largest recent award in the data was $4.3 million to Save the Children for earthquake relief in Turkey and Syria, followed by additional support to the same organization in 2024 for the same response. That disaster-response pattern sits alongside a broader portfolio that includes youth skills, employability, entrepreneurship, and digital learning. Grants in the record also reach international groups working with children and young people, such as UNICEF-linked initiatives and youth enterprise organizations. The foundation’s giving is not limited to one country or one issue; it funds both immediate humanitarian appeals and longer-horizon programs that aim to build skills, improve access to work, and support young people’s economic participation. A recurring theme is work with large delivery partners that can operate at scale, including major nonprofits and multilateral or international NGOs. In the recent data, the foundation shows a preference for substantial awards rather than many small grants, and its funded efforts often combine practical training, recovery support, and systems-oriented programming.
In youth employability, the foundation backed Goodwill Industries International with $1.7 million to help youth with employability, digital, and occupation-specific skills. It also supported Article 1 with $968,700 to reach jobseekers with in-demand soft skills in collaboration with government, alliance partners, and clients, focused on closing employment gaps. For entrepreneurship, it gave $2.8 million to Youth Business in Force for Good to enable diverse young entrepreneurs to be a force for good, and another $1.1 million to Gerando Falcoes for a skilling program for favela youth. Digital and sustainability work appears through Fundacion Entreculturas Path for a Digital and Sustainable World, which received multiple grants for a path for a digital and sustainable world initiative and for building basic digital knowledge, technical skills, and environmental awareness competencies. The foundation also supported Peacegeeks to scale employment solutions through the Welcome to Canada app.

Concentrated, single large emergency grant directed to an established international relief organization; appears to favor sizable, one-off rapid-response funding rather than many small or multi-year commitments.
Notable grantees: Save the Children
Accenture Foundation Inc gives at a large-grant scale: the 25th percentile is $152,670, the median is $359,025, and the 75th percentile is $998,533. The record shows repeated support to several recipients across multiple years, including Save the Children, Fundacion Entreculturas Path for a Digital and Sustainable World, UNICEF Passport to Earning, and Peacegeeks, which points to multi-year relationships rather than one-off awards. It is classified as a Regular Funder and funds individuals. The typical pattern is programmatic support for established organizations, with some general operating support also appearing in the grant list.
Giving is national, with the largest share of grants going to recipients in the US and a noticeable concentration in Maryland. The recipient country distribution also includes the UK, Spain, Switzerland, Norway, Canada, France, and Brazil. Recent grants reach Fairfield, CT; Boston, MA; Rockville, MD; New York, NY; Washington, DC; London; Madrid; Oslo; Vancouver; Paris; and Oakland, CA. The headquarters is in Chicago, IL, but only 14% of grants go to Illinois recipients, showing that the funding footprint is broader than the home state.
The recent record centers on established nonprofits and international delivery partners. Examples include Save the Children for earthquake relief, Junior Achievement Worldwide for skills programming, Youth Business International for entrepreneurship, UNICEF-linked initiatives, Goodwill Industries International for youth employability, and the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent for disaster response.
The grant-size distribution is relatively large: the 25th percentile is $152,670, the median is $359,025, and the 75th percentile is $998,533. Several grants in the list are in the seven-figure range, including awards above $2 million and a $4.3 million grant for earthquake relief.
Yes. Save the Children appears multiple times across 2023, 2024, and 2025. Fundacion Entreculturas Path for a Digital and Sustainable World also appears more than once, as do UNICEF Passport to Earning and Peacegeeks. That pattern suggests ongoing relationships with selected grantees.
The grants emphasize disaster relief, youth employability, digital skills, entrepreneurship, and sustainability. Named examples include earthquake relief in Turkey and Syria, help for youth with employability and digital skills, support for young entrepreneurs, and initiatives tied to digital and sustainable world programming.
The giving is national, but the highest recipient concentration is in Maryland. The recipient country distribution also shows a broad spread, with grants landing in the US, UK, Spain, Switzerland, Norway, Canada, France, and Brazil. Recent recipient cities include Fairfield, Boston, Rockville, Washington, London, Madrid, Oslo, Vancouver, Paris, and Oakland.
