As Chairman of United Way Worldwide, the world’s largest privately funded nonprofit, Mr. Salzberg is leading UWW’s global efforts to further enhance education, income and health. As global CEO of Deloitte—where Salzberg leads the strategic direction of 48 member firms in 150 countries with more than 195,000 people worldwide—he has made significant contributions to society. While Deloitte has supported UWW for 25 years, it was under Salzberg’s leadership at Deloitte that the member firm ran consecutive record-breaking UWW campaigns, with the most Tocqueville donors (above $10,000) of any company in the U.S. Salzberg also established the United Way Education Collaboratives, which have raised nearly $4 million for education. Mr. Salzberg will discuss his personal and professional commitment to UWW’s efforts, the future of the nonprofit sector, and how he views corporate social responsibility at Deloitte.
