Spotlight on You (and Your Leaders!)

In recent weeks, CEOs of prominent companies have spoken out against racial inequality and violence. Here are just a few examples from our member community, and you can read more in our blog, Business Support for Protests of Racial Inequality:

Travelers has announced a commitment of $1 million to assist nonprofits dedicated to advancing racial equality across the United States and rebuilding damaged businesses in Minnesota, where the company has had a significant presence for more than 165 years. “The gravity of this moment demands meaningful action, and Travelers has a long history of helping our communities in times of need,” said Alan Schnitzer, chairman and chief executive officer of The Travelers Companies, Inc. “Two ways we are stepping up right now are by supporting the important work of advancing racial equality and rebuilding our communities in the Twin Cities, where so many of our colleagues live and work.”

Nike announced a $40 million commitment over the next four years to supporting organizations that put social justice, education, and addressing racial inequality in America at the forefront of their missions. "Systemic racism and the events that have unfolded across America over the past few weeks serve as an urgent reminder of the continued change needed in our society. We know Black Lives Matter. We must educate ourselves more deeply on the issues faced by Black communities and understand the enormous suffering and senseless tragedy racial bigotry creates," said John Donahoe, president and CEO of Nike, Inc.
