Milliman Giving Fund renews commitment to The Actuarial Foundation’s Math Motivators Tutoring Program

SEATTLE--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Milliman, Inc., a premier global consulting and actuarial firm, announced that the Milliman Giving Fund renewed a three-year, $600,000 commitment to The Actuarial Foundation’s Math Motivators Tutoring Program. The award expands access to high-quality, free math tutoring for students in under-resourced communities in the United States. The Milliman Giving Fund has invested nearly $1.5 million over seven years of support for the tutoring initiative. With this new commitment, Milliman reaffirms its standing as Math Motivators’ lead financial supporter.

Milliman’s renewed investment will deepen The Actuarial Foundation’s impact by growing in-person tutoring capacity in key regions, strengthening partnerships with schools to increase access, and expanding services to middle school students as they progress through high school.

“We’re deeply proud of how this partnership empowers students to gain confidence and mastery in math, while enabling our employees to volunteer their skills to foster student success,” said Deborah Wolf, co-chair of the Milliman Giving Fund Committee. “Over the years, Milliman volunteers have contributed thousands of tutoring hours to students across the United States.”

Since its launch in 2016, Math Motivators has reached thousands of students nationwide, pairing them with volunteer tutors who provide personalized support. The program serves students in grades 5-12 with foundational math, algebra, advanced subjects, and SAT/ACT test preparation.

“We are incredibly grateful to Milliman and the Milliman Giving Fund for their continued partnership and generosity,” said Valerie Thompson, executive director of The Actuarial Foundation. “Milliman’s long-term financial commitment and employees’ dedication have made Math Motivators a powerful force, helping students build confidence, improve academic performance, and open doors to future success.”

The employee- and retiree-funded Milliman Giving Fund amplifies Milliman’s mission by supporting transformative programs to improve communities’ health, education, and economic development worldwide. Since 2019, the Giving Fund has donated more than $6 million to partners worldwide.
