HELP! Company core values?

[cjsmith]

I'm supposed to write an essay on a company and its core values. Help! Please! Does anyone know a company who actually publishes core values?

Problem 1: The essay is not complete without a printout of the company's own statement of their core values, possibly from the Web. Companies I know anything about don't have time for that kind of crap. (I have worked for a lot of companies, and I have done a lot of Web searching. I had no idea how hard this would be to find.)

Problem 2: I need to be able to talk about how the company does or doesn't live up to those values. I can't pick Western Widget Incorporated unless there's a metric buttload of obvious core-values-related news about it at my little Google-enabled fingertips.

Any ideas out there? Pretty please?

EDIT: Thank you everybody!! I've been too hung up on thinking I had to find a place I had worked for or had known a lot about beforehand. I can get started now!

Has to be a company, or can it be an organization? Cause I can offer this: http://www.greenpeace.org/international/about/our-core-values

And boy is there lots of data about what GP does out there. Plus archive.greenpeace.org has everything else.

That's excellent! I'm not sure whether it has to be a company. I was thinking of Habitat for Humanity for a while, too. That link is exactly the kind of thing I need! I wonder if I can do Greenpeace instead of some for-profit corporation...
