“We want to send a message that love will conquer hate,” said Suzanne Hamilton, HRC Board of Directors and sponsorship co-chair for the Cleveland Steering Committee. “We are proud to recognize Eaton as a leader in this fight to ensure that all people are embraced as full members of society at home, at work and in in every community.”
