Apple Celebrates Pride

In its recent announcement, Apple unveiled a new product that demonstrates its engagement with LGBTQ+ advocacy organizations and its dedication to promoting positive change.

The supported organizations include the Equality Federation Institute, GLSEN, Encircle, Equality North Carolina, Equality Texas, Gender Spectrum, Human Rights Campaign, ILGA World, the National Center for Transgender Equality, PFLAG, SMYAL, and The Trevor Project.

Drawing inspiration from the LGBTQ+ community, the Pride Edition Sport Band features the iconic rainbow colors of the pride flag, as well as additional colors representing various communities.
