With the advent of Covid-19, there’s never been a more swift and far-reaching need for individuals and corporations to give back to their communities.
In this episode we sat down with Luis Benitez, the vice president of Government Affairs and Global Impact at VF Corp to talk about their approach to corporate social responsibility, how the well-known outdoor apparel and lifestyle brand parent company has transitioned into Denver, and where they are focusing their CSR and community impact efforts. Luis also offers a couple of personal recommendations for great outdoor-related non-profits that have an increased need for volunteers during a summer that saw lots of people using Colorado’s outdoors.
