RSM’s Power of Love Program Raises More Than US$5 Million

TORONTO – (November 21, 2024) – RSM Canada (“RSM”) - a leading global provider of assurance, tax and consulting services – was pleased to present the Davis Love Foundation with a more than US$5 million donation from RSM’s employee-led Power of Love program. The funds will support nonprofit organizations focused on children and families in the communities where RSM’s people live and work. This brings the grand total raised to-date through the tournament to nearly US$48 million.

Through the Power of Love and a matching donation from the RSM US Foundation, RSM’s people, clients and friends raise funds to support the foundation’s mission to build tomorrow’s middle market leaders through programs and charitable donations that enhance educational outcomes and the quality of life for children and families. The program supports more than 100 charities across the U.S., Canada, India and El Salvador each year.

“I am exceptionally proud of RSM’s people for consistently showing up and promoting stewardship, one of our firm’s core values, in everything they do,” said Doug Opheim, chair of the RSM US Foundation’s Board of Directors. “Through the firm’s employee-led Power of Love program and a matching donation from the RSM US Foundation, we’ve been able to yet again create a positive, meaningful impact for those in our communities. Our Power of Love leaders, Joanne Evans and Samuel Kleiss, have gone above and beyond to help engage our people and lead the program this year. Congratulations to them and to everyone involved in helping us achieve our goals through the Power of Love.”

RSM’s Birdies Fore Love – an on-course competition in conjunction with the PGA TOUR – was announced in 2018 to recognize and award weekly winners throughout the fall, as well as the top finisher in total birdies (or better) from all fall TOUR events. As in years past, weekly winners and the overall winner from this year’s RSM’s Birdies Fore Love program will get to make a contribution to a youth-focused charity of their choice.

“The impact of The RSM Classic and RSM’s Power of Love program on our communities is incredible,” said Andy Bosman, chief marketing officer with RSM US LLP. “We are honoured to be able to join the Davis Love Foundation and PGA TOUR players to work together to support organizations aligned with the RSM US Foundation’s values.”

“In working with RSM on The RSM Classic and related charity initiatives over the past 15 years, I couldn’t be more proud of all that we, as a team, have accomplished and continue to do,” said Davis Love III, PGA TOUR professional, Team RSM member and The RSM Classic Tournament Host. “The Davis Love Foundation and the RSM US Foundation share common values and missions around helping children and families, and when we combine efforts, the outcome is impact beyond measure.”
