Apple has been a long-time supporter of the LGBTQ+ community. In 2015, the company added same-sex marriage to its employee benefits plan. In 2017, Apple launched the Apple Watch Pride Edition band. And in 2019, Apple launched the Be True campaign to support LGBTQ+ advocacy organizations.
Apple's support for the LGBTQ+ community is an important step in the fight for equality. By donating to advocacy organizations and creating products that celebrate the LGBTQ+ community, Apple is helping to create a more inclusive world.
