Saying "Thank you" can be a simple but effective thing to do.
I don't usually endorse companies - it takes a lot for me to do so. Normally it would be for philanthropic reasons only. It's not a rule as such, just something that I don't do. Today however, I've been given a very good reason to do so. Starbucks is a very large, and really well known company. Today they have come out (no pun intended by the way) in support of the gay community. Now for a company as large as this to do something like this - it is a gamble. Because a belief like this could damage their brand.
So, because they have done this, I wish to acknowledge what they have done and say 'Thank you' on behalf of my daughter, and my friends, that for no other reason but their sexuality, they are shunned and bullied, and worse, told they cannot marry the one they love.
If you support equality of any sort, then you would also support Starbucks. Please let them know that you support them in their coming out, by signing an eThank you card. You can do so here...
