Great Place to Work and FORTUNE have honored Old Navy as one of
the 2018 Best Workplaces for Giving Back. The ranking considered
more than 385,000 employee surveys from companies across the U.S.
Great Place to Work, a research and consulting firm, evaluated more
than 50 elements of team members’ experience on the job. These
included employee pride in the organization’s community impact,
belief that their work makes a difference, and feeling their work
has special meaning. The ranking also accounted for how women,
people of color, Baby Boomers and LGBT individuals experience
giving back in the workplace. Old Navy was also named to the 2017
“Best Workplaces in Retail” and “Best Workplaces in Diversity”
lists.

“We’re thrilled to be recognized for our efforts around giving
back to the community, as it’s embedded in the DNA of our brand,”

cause marketing platform, ONward!, we partner with nonprofits to
empower the next generation with real-world skills, training, and
job opportunities to make a difference in our communities. We’re
passionate about taking the next generation to the next level and
helping youth blaze a path towards a brighter future.”
For over a decade, Old Navy has partnered with Boys & Girls
Clubs to help turn learners into leaders, donating $2 million in

graduates of the company’s This Way Ahead paid store internship
program by 2025, and Old Navy announced plans last year to expand
the employment program to Boys & Girls Club youth. Learn more

we hear time and time again that volunteering is one of the reasons
so many people come to Gap Inc. and why they stay. We’re proud of
our employees, who so generously lend their time, creativity, and
talents to our communities,” said David Hayer, president of Gap
Foundation and SVP of Global Sustainability at Gap Inc.
