Given the strength of the Christian rightwing in Australia, it is appropriate to e-mail Johnson & Johnson Pacific* and thank them for recognizing the partner of gold medalist swimmer Matthew Mitcham as family, and making it possible for him to be present at the Olympics as part of the Athlete Family Support Program, as mentioned in Out. The program gave financial help to families of athletes who couldn't afford to attend the Olympic games, but with the help of J&J, "which donated a $5,000 travel grant, [Mitcham's partner] Lachlan [Flecther] was there to watch his partner take a shot at the medal stand."
When it comes to Calls To Action, the motto of "Reward Good Behavior" is as important as the dedication to force change through complaint.
Commend Johnson & Johnson Pacific for the progressive values of their Support Program at a time when Australia's religious rightwing would rather have seen Lachlan Flecther left behind on the tarmac.
