                                  Total societal investments of US$264.8M include US$ 91.2M in donations, US$152.8M in value of volunteer and pro bono hours, and
                                  US$20.8M in management costs. Global figures are aggregated across the Deloitte organization. “Individuals reached” refers to the total
                                  number of people, external to Deloitte, impacted through support provided by Deloitte people to individuals (e.g., mentoring) and organizations
                                  (e.g., capacity building for nonprofit organizations) toward Deloitte’s goal of reaching 50 million individuals by 2030. Because of rounding,
                                  numbers may not tally with the total. Total COVID-19 community investments and WorldClass investments are not mutually exclusive as
                                  some COVID-19 community response investments (e.g., supporting virtual learning arrangements) also qualify as WorldClass.
