OUR COMMITMENT TO ANTI-RACISM. Black lives matter. The tragedies of the past weeks have changed us — all of us. They have moved us to act to eradicate systemic racism in ways we never have before. We have not done enough, and we demand more of ourselves—not just in this moment. We’ve spent the last weeks listening, learning, and taking thoughtful actions toward sustained change. This starts within our company and our community. It won’t happen overnight, but we will—as an organization and as individuals—actively fight for racial justice and equality. Here are the anti-racist actions we’re taking now. INCREASE REPRESENTATION: To reflect our mission and the diversity of our country’s population, we join our fellow Gap Inc. brands in a commitment to double the representation of Black and Latinx employees at all levels in our HQs by 2025. Efforts will be particularly focused on functions that make and market our products to ensure we are creating for all, with all. In tandem, we plan to increase representation of Black employees by 50% in our store leader roles by 2025 as we strive to operate stores that reflect the local communities we serve. ENSURE EQUITY: In 2019, as a part of Gap Inc., we expanded our annual review of pay data to assess our pay data across race and ethnicity for employees based in California, where we are headquartered. Starting this year, we will have an external firm assess our pay data by race for all U.S. employees. We will do so with the objective of continuing to ensure pay equity for all employees. WELLNESS FOR ALL GRANT INITIATIVE: Together with Movemeant Foundation, we are launching a $100,000 grant program to support fitness professionals, businesses, and organizations focused on inclusive wellness programming in BIPOC communities. We invite all those who meet the eligibility requirements to apply for one of the 10 grants, now open until August 21st. REINFORCE ACCOUNTABILITY: We will expand Athleta’s existing employee-led Color Proud Council as our internal anti-racism coalition. This includes formalizing Color Proud Council’s partnership across all Athleta business functions, with immediate engagement as a critical step to inclusive product and marketing development. The coalition will meet with brand leadership monthly to ensure a sustained open forum for feedback and accountability. RECOMMIT TO COMMUNITY: We recommit to our mission of empowering an inclusive community of women and girls through movement, and to amplifying Black women’s voices across all marketing channels. We will continue to tell the stories of BIPOC women and girls, who represent an integral part of our community. These are only first steps. We will continue to update our community on our ongoing efforts.
