Making a Difference in our Communities
In 2011, Limited Brands Foundation granted more than $9 million to various non-profit organizations in our home office communities. Since its inception in 1993, the Foundation has contributed more than $100 million to support non-profit organizations, and is committed to supporting community programs that focus on empowering women, nurturing and mentoring children and improving education.
Also embedded in our focus is a commitment to inclusion. As one of our company's core values, we understand, appreciate and leverage diversity to provide value for our customers, associates and shareholders. Our philanthropic efforts represent a rich mixture of backgrounds, insights and perspectives.
Going hand-in-hand with our efforts to help improve education is our commitment to enriching the cultural arts. We believe that vibrant cultural arts are synonymous with vibrant and diverse communities - exposing us to new works and different perspectives that not only entertain, but educate and challenge us to think about how we live today.
