Holiday Shopping: Remember to Buy Blue!


BuyBlue.org supports businesses that share progressive values and ideals.

They believe in atriple bottom line: people, planet and profit.

BuyBlue.org uses its power as consumers to vote with our wallets, supporting businesses that abide by sustainability, workers' rights, environmental standards, and corporate transparency. At the same time, BuyBlue.org focuses sharply on businesses that violate the essential values of a sustainable, fair and profitable society through their policies and the politicians they support.

BuyBlue.org will become a powerful tool used by a community of millions. They hope to form strong coalitions with stockholders, shareholders, corporations, small businesses and communities which share our values to gain strength through numbers. We will influence the political landscape, stimulate economic growth among participating businesses and industries and use the American dollar as an incentive for corporate transparency and responsibility.

In the wake of the recent Ford Motors pull out in gay mags advertisment and of homo events , buying blue is more important than ever. A complete listing of local/national businesses to support are located on the website. Black, white, gay or straight... green is green and it adds up!

For your holiday shopping this year (and every day,) rememeber to buy blue!
