Racial Equity Pledge

Commerce Lexington Inc. has long held that diversity and creating a welcoming city for ALL are not only good for our economy, but are also keys to our business recruitment and retention efforts."
Picture
TAKE THE PLEDGE:
Commerce Lexington’s Racial Equity Pledge challenges the region’s business community to build a more inclusive economy based on equal opportunity and advancing racial equity. By signing this pledge, we commit to pursuing inclusivity and equality for underrepresented and marginalized community groups and agree to increase efforts and transparency around conscious efforts to attack poverty, narrow the racial wealth gap, and increase equity for area residents.  We recognize that living up to this pledge requires a necessary and comprehensive overhaul of the status quo, however, we are ready to seize the opportunity to create sustainable solutions over a multi-year horizon that will position Commerce Lexington as a leader in this work.

Adding your company's name to this pledge is an agreement to pursue change intentionally and consistently within our businesses and the broader community. As business leaders, our time in history is now, and our action matters, now more than ever. We pledge to make a difference by working toward minority business economic inclusion and actively supporting underrepresented and marginalized businesses and talent.

To add your company's name to the list of pledge supporters, send your company logo to Mark Turner.
