In the U.S. and Canada, TCS employees volunteered with local, national and global nonprofits; supported STEM education programs for K-12 students; and mentored youth, women, veterans, Indigenous peoples and others to help expand digital opportunity and access to careers of the future. Other CSR programs supported efforts to ensure workforce readiness for new opportunities in the digital and AI-driven economy.
“I’m deeply thankful to every TCS employee who volunteered for their communities over the past year,” said Lina Klebanov, head of CSR, North America, TCS. “Their time and care—and collaboration with our nonprofit partners—helped open doors to belonging, dignity and opportunity.”
Volunteerism and pro bono services
During the 2026 fiscal year, TCS’ CSR team curated hundreds of volunteer opportunities through TCS’ myPurpose employee volunteerism platform, which helps employees find and register for opportunities as well as track impact. The team also implemented its seventh Leaders with Purpose cohort and started an eighth. Members of the FY26 graduating cohort, who competed for entry into the nine-month program that encourages and enables meaningful sustained volunteer engagement, completed online and in-person learning on nonprofit operations and delivered capstone projects in support of nonprofits in their regions.
In FY26, TCS employee volunteers supported local and national nonprofits, scientific research organizations, and TCS community engagement and education programs. These included Go Innovate Together (goIT), Ignite My Future and Tech4Hope, TCS’ pro bono technology consulting and services program for select nonprofits. During the year, Tech4Hope supported North America-based nonprofits, including Girl Up, Marici, NAF, and Sports Integrity Global Alliance, with services ranging from made-to-order customer relationship management platforms to data visualization projects.
Student empowerment
During the 2026 fiscal year, TCS’ two STEM education initiatives achieved a lifetime reach of nearly 2 million K-12 students in North America, providing skills and opportunities designed to build self-confidence and interest in STEM in support of future career success.

In FY26, TCS expanded the Ignite My Future-Jaguar TCS Racing partnership and invited students to enter a global student challenge related to raising excitement about STEM and all-electric racing. It offered finalists located near race cities a potential at-the-track experience designed to generate student interest in STEM education and careers they could envision for themselves after meeting Jaguar TCS Racing’s on-site teams.
