San Francisco (CBS) - San Francisco's iconic fashion brand, Levi Strauss & Company, is against the increasing trend of gun violence in the United States
The company established the "safer tomorrow fund" to invest $ 1 million in non-profit organizations and youth activists who ended gun violence in the United States.
"When it comes to a problem that threatens the structure of the community in which we live, we can not keep it quietly," Levi CEO Chip Bergh wrote in Fortune's column. "Position taking may not be welcomed by some people, but not doing anything is no longer an option."
In addition, Levi's will work with Michael Bloomberg to form a Business Leaders Alliance to defend the gun control.

"A lot of people support us, this is a good thing," one customer at Levi said. "They are in the starting point, I hope more companies will participate."
"I like their things and rank first," she said. "Second, I support gun control, I guess we have a big problem, I do not want to deprive people's rights, but I think we need more stringent rules"

As a member of 49ers in 2016, Kaepernick kneeled during the national anthem to protest against racial corruption. This movement spread to the players of other teams, and a national debate including many tweets from President Donald Trump was triggered.
"His American flag, Star-Spangled Banner, then American League for American League?" She said. "What are you doing here?"
Clients with dissatisfaction on social media placed Nike products hot while Kaepernick advertising, but Levi did not object.
In 2002, Levi Strauss CEO Phil Marineau faced a tough decision on whether to sell the product at Wal-Mart.
