At Ford, investing back into the community is vital. The car manufacturer created the Ford Motor Company Fund in 1949, which has since donated nearly $1.5 billion to nonprofits that specialize in education, community development, and auto safety.

Ford's workforce follows that example. More than 27,000 of the company's employees and retirees form a volunteer corps that logs over 112,000 hours of volunteer work on community-service projects each year.
