We nurture and celebrate our employees through activities, education, mentoring programs, and Employee Resource Groups that promote diversity and inclusion. These efforts help employees grow in their careers and build their connections within our organization. We’re also committed to increasing underrepresented people in our industry through scholarship programs and sponsorships of the International Association of Black Actuaries and the Organization of Latino Actuaries.

We contribute to communities worldwide through donations, volunteering, and collaboration. For example, Milliman Giving Fund partners with not-for-profit organizations such as the Math Motivators tutoring program. Partnering with the United Nations Development Program (UNDP), the Milliman Global Actuarial Initiative fosters actuarial expertise in developing countries. And the Milliman Climate Resilience Initiative unites perspectives across industry, government, academic, and not-for-profit sectors to anticipate and measure the most pressing climate risks and drive effective responses.

The employee- and retiree-funded Milliman Giving Fund amplifies our mission by supporting transformative programs to improve communities’ health, education, and economic development worldwide. We have granted more than $3 million to signature projects and partners in key focus areas. At this time, the Milliman Giving Fund only accepts proposals by request.

The Milliman Giving fund partners with Opportunity International to fuel economic transformation for impoverished parents and children in Uganda and Colombia. From 2019–2021, we provided a grant to fund an Opportunity Zone in Mityana, Uganda. It combines high-impact education and rural finance programs to create jobs, increase parental incomes, and improve education, helping communities and families build a better future faster. We awarded another grant covering 2022-2024, building on the progress of the Mityana zone and initiating a new one in Cartagena, Colombia.

The free Math Motivators tutoring program pairs lower-income students with volunteer math tutors. Since 2018, the Milliman Giving Fund has helped Math Motivators reach more than 1,000 students annually in 22 states and add virtual tutoring, drop-in centers, expanded grade levels, test prep, multilingual tutoring, and the Money Mentors financial literacy program. Milliman employees and retirees also volunteer as tutors in many cities.

Partners in Health supports the Navajo Nation in addressing health disparities affecting one of America’s largest indigenous communities. The program works with a Native-run nonprofit to strengthen the health system and improve the lives of those living with chronic diseases.

Project WISE is a multi-year effort by Splash to bring clean drinking water, sanitation, and menstrual hygiene education to every public school in Kolkata, India and Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. Milliman provided the most significant corporate grant to Project WISE for 2021-2023.
