Although only the purchases made between the 14 and the 30 in June and with a maximum donation of U.S. dollar 50.000.

Although it is a good initiative that surely helps many children LGTB + and gives visibility to the collective, the first criticisms have not been slow to arrive. The limit of 50.000 dollars is a bit stale when it comes to an empire like Disney.

We look forward to the arrival of the first lesbian character of the company in 2018.
