Look down.
Are you wearing a pair of Levis right now?
Do you have a pair at home?
Have you ever owned a pair of Levis jeans?
My guess is that most of us would answer yes to one of these questions.
Here's a little information about the company:
Philanthropy, you might say, is woven into the fabric of Levi Strauss & Co. In 1897, our founder, Levi Strauss donated funds for scholarships — half of them for women — at the University of California at Berkeley. We have been finding ways to empower individuals and communities ever since.
Today, that heritage is enshrined in two dynamic foundations committed to social change and improving the lives of those in need.
For more than 50 years, the Levi Strauss Foundation has actively promoted workers rights, the fight against HIV/AIDS and building assets to protect poor families and marginalized individuals.
The Red Tab Foundation, started by Levi Strauss & Co. executive Jerry O’Shea, provides a financial safety net for any company employee or retiree in need.
In addition, the company believes in employee diversity, truly valuing human resources; and they practice sustainability in their manufacturing. All of these things are deeply ingrained in the corporate culture at Levi Strauss.
So what's the problem with Levis, you ask?
Well...the problem isn't with those Levis, you see.
It's...It's...these...
