"The Truth Today..."

What can Brown do for you...?

"The UPS Foundation seeks to support organizations that are in alignment with our focus areas, guidelines, and non-discrimination policy. UPS and The UPS Foundation do not discriminate against any person or organization with regard to categories protected by applicable law, as well as other categories protected by UPS and The UPS Foundation in our own policies. These include, but are not limited to race, gender, national origin, disability, sexual orientation, gender identity, veteran or military status, pregnancy, age and religion."


Yesterday, the UPS Foundation announced it would no longer support the Boy Scouts of America because of its discriminatory stance against GLBT members and volunteers.  The UPS Foundation had been a major, long-time supporter of the Boy Scouts.  UPS has offered benefits to same-sex partners of its employees since 2007 and is highly ranked for its stance on workplace equality by the Human Rights Campaign.

Thank you UPS!
