Wearing Jeans to Work Pays Off!

On the last Friday of every month, Schnitzer West employees donate a minimum of $5 dollars to participate in “Jeans Friday”. Employees who donate are allowed to wear their favorite denim to work. The proceeds from this fun event are donated to local charity. This past July’s Charity was WPIG.

Schnitzer West, LLC is one of the Pacific Northwest's leading commercial real estate investment, development, and management companies. Quite a few past and present Schnitzer employees (Katie Patchin, Lori Chase, Alicia Stedman, Kym Haley and Megan Thomas) are WPIG members. Currently three Schnitzer employees sit on WPIG’s seven member board.

Thank you Schnitzer West for supporting WPIG!

  1. That's awesome. I worked a job that did this. It was every other Friday and it was $1 and the money went to Toys for Tots
