Stewardship

MEANINGFULLY IMPACTING

OUR LOCAL COMMUNITIES

As a global business, Gates recognizes the importance of helping to build, serve, empower and better the communities in which we live and work. We work together as an organization, and through a variety of local initiatives, to support community stewardship. With a focus on mental and emotional well-being, social support tools, and physical and financial wellness, we understand the importance of investing in the development of our workforce and recognize social impacts and employee well-being are critical to the success of our organization. Gates employs a number of employee resource groups to support this focus.

WE ARE DRIVEN BY A GLOBAL CULTURE OF
DIVERSITY AND INCLUSION

Gates proudly supports many events on Diversity and Inclusion, as part of our continued efforts to raise awareness of the importance of a diverse and inclusive workforce and to promote a culture in which our employees can thrive. We believe that celebrating Gates’ diverse population helps us to better understand and appreciate our unique differences and our overwhelming similarities. Inside and outside of Gates, there are many ways in which we celebrate diversity and foster a vibrant and inclusive culture.

LGBTQ+ PRIDE MONTH

Gates actively engaged employees, and the local community, in conversation and activism through its participation and sponsorship of Denver Pride activities. A participant and significant sponsor of the 2019 Denver Pride 5K, the Gates D&I team raised more money than any other corporate team for race organizer, The Center on Colfax, an organization that ensures every member of the LGBTQ+ community has access to vital programs and resources. Gates also provided a Gates Carbon Drive bicycle to the race winner. The company also celebrated Pride Month with a number of internal events.
