This amazing buyers guide will help you determine whether the companies you support also support the people you support. Put together by the Human Rights Campaign foundation in the States, an organization working toward achieving and maintaining rights for LGBTQ people across some of the most homophobic regions in North America, the guide indicates that despite tragic choices on the part of state legislatures, a very positive response to equality has been seen throughout the business sector. But it's interesting to know that BestBuy scores 100% on the Corporate Equality Index whereas RadioShack only scores 40%. Or that Dell is another shining example of support for the LGBTQ community, but Acer slumps way back at 58% on the CEI.
Take a look at the Buyer's Guide and make your choices as positive as possible.
