At J.Crew Factory, our Associate Impact Groups (AIG) are crucial in creating an aspirational environment and culture. They foster a stronger sense of community, drive organizational change, create opportunities for cultural exchange, and positively impact their communities. Recently, Unidos—dedicated to our Latine associates and allies—teamed up with the Texas JCG team to join a volunteer event at the San Antonio Food Bank— to support its mission to fight hunger and feed hope across Southwest Texas. We had 11 of our J.Crew Factory Retail and Customer Care associates from the Houston and San Antonio areas work together to sort and pack produce, nonperishable foods, and household items in preparation for distribution to members of the local community being served. Through their efforts, the team was able to organize and box over 3200 lbs. of food, which equates to 2,587 meals in total. We are proud of our associates who choose to give back and make a difference in their communities. #JCrewCares #AIG #GiveBack #JCrewFactory

So few companies contribute to their communities. These things should be celebrated more

Excellent facility and staff helping those in need across 13 counties in Northern Illinois. We packed 6,912 lbs of protien to provide 5,760 meals.

Do you have a file titled 'Good Advice'? You can add this to the file - interesting comparison and thoughts See what you think... "Bees, being pollinators, help make up to one out of every three bites of food that humans eat. Honeybees achieve this through a distinct governance structure in which the queen sets the tone for the characteristics and culture of her hive, but she wisely leans on counsel from an older generation of worker bees— acting as the board of directors that guide the rank and file of the colony.

Yet, more than 83,700 people in Wyoming—over 14% of the population—are facing food insecurity. We've had the honor of connecting with neighbors across the state and learning firsthand about the challenges of food insecurity. Learn more in our blog linked below.

Today, participants in Acres: Cultivating Equity in Black Agriculture began applying for National Minority Supplier Development Council (NMSDCHQ). Please help me celebrate these newly applied MBE members Brandon Gerrins, Niki Gerrins, Chris Muse, Brian Guidry, Tesha B. Guidry, NCET, Tonya Cryer, Tamu Green of Southern Region Minority Supplier Development Council. We are also celebrating Sam Cobb Farms. of Western Regional Minority Supplier Development Council (WRMSDC), an affiliate of NMSDC. I want to express my sincere gratitude to the dynamic certification team. Constance (CJ) Jones, MBA and Alyssa Wesley for their leadership and assistance. This program is working to close opportunity and wealth gaps for Black Farmers. A huge part of the certification process, that we often don't think about, is the anxiety that comes with gathering/uploading the documentation and what I like to call the "I don't know" questions found in the application. What we do, to remedy this, is provide support. Support is an equitable practice! Equity isn't limited to dollars. Dollars are important; however, support in accessing and managing this NEW acquired dollars/position/audience is equity in action. Strategic utilization of time and support level playing fields and that my dear LinkedIn friends grounds equity work! #equity #nmsdc #cargill #unfi #walmart #blackfarmers Jetheda Hernandez, Brandi W., Natalie Chantal McGrady, Valencia Cooper, Lori Rodriques (she, her, hers), Kristine Creveling, MPH, RD, Marc Winston, and Monique Carswell
