I clipped an article from USAIR's in-flight magazine a couple of years ago,
which lists mutual funds and investment firms specializing in social
investments.  According to the article they all have different economic and
social criteria for selecting their portfolios.  Please bear in mind that the
article is two or three years old, so some information may be out of date.
I haven't contacted any of these firms myself.
