DXC Dandelion
At DXC, we’re reimagining neurodiversity. The DXC Dandelion Program helps individuals on the autism spectrum build valuable IT skills and careers. The program combines robotics with commercial IT industry teaching and methodologies to help participants develop technical, life and executive functioning skills. To date, we have established 10 DXC Dandelion teams across Australia, working within DXC’s public and private sector clients, to employ more than 120 people on the autism spectrum. The program expanded into the United Kingdom in June 2021, with future expansion plans for Asia, United States and Europe.
DXC and The Scott-Morgan Foundation
DXC is a proud partner of The Scott-Morgan Foundation, which is on a mission to apply advanced technologies to empower people with extreme disabilities, illnesses, and other challenging conditions to continue to lead full and socially rich lives. The Foundation was established by Dr Peter Scott-Morgan, a visionary British roboticist, author, and speaker.
DXC is leading technology roadmap and integration for The Foundation, bringing all the unique pieces of hardware, software, and AI into an integrated working solution designed to aid communication and mobility. The vision is to not only to collaborate with The Foundation, but to create an open and scalable set of technologies that could one day help others around the world to overcome life-challenging conditions.
Meet Marvel-Us
If you go to the DXC Rijswijk (Netherlands) canteen, you’ll meet Marvel-Us staff. Partnering with Middin, an organization that helps people with disabilities or acquired brain injuries, DXC offers a unique position and place to learn and develop catering and cleaning skills in a corporate work environment. All members of the Marvel-Us team running the canteen and managing coffee corner suffer non-congenital brain disorder. Our Dutch colleagues are managing the team in their spare time. The social benefit is undisputable. The Marvel-Us concept is a place to connect, share and learn, it’s appreciated by colleagues and customers who experience the canteen.
DXC and Earth Day
At DXC, we care about the global environment and take our global stewardship seriously. That’s why we celebrate global Earth Day every year.
In 2022 we enjoyed switching from virtual events back to in-person activities. Our people around the world invested in our planet by taking active roles in initiatives supporting their local environmental programs and activities. Jointly, we cleaned up parks, beautified beaches, planted trees and more.
We regularly discuss and share our ideas for making our world a little greener every day, learning from each other’s best practices. But we don’t just talk; we act, inspiring change in the communities we do business in. We make every day Earth Day!

The Thomson Reuters Foundation recently named DXC Technology’s global Legal team the winner of its 2022 TrustLaw "In-house Legal Team of the Year" Award for offering pro bono expertise on a range of projects that promote inclusion and human rights and support communities.
Around the globe, DXC Legal team members are donating their time, legal knowledge and skills through pro bono or free work because they’re passionate about helping others and advancing causes they care about to improve our world. With some exceptions, they undertake charitable endeavors predominantly through NGOs and social enterprises aiming to solve complex problems and change lives.
