UPS Foundation Pulls Boy Scouts’ Grant

{Atlanta, Georgia}...The Atlanta-based UPS Foundation announced Thursday it will no longer give grants to the Boy Scouts of America as long as the group excludes gays and lesbians from being scouts or scout leaders. The shipping giant made the change after an online petition protesting the foundation's annual grants to the Boy Scouts attracted more than 80,000 signatures. The UPS Foundation gave $150,000 to the Boy Scouts in 2010.
