OUR HISTORY
------------
Love Honor Cherish formed in May 2008 to work against Prop 8. We raised over half a million dollars for the No on 8 campaign but at the same time, also mounted our own separate outreach and media efforts, with a strong focus on speaking the truth about marriage and presenting diverse images of LGBT people and our families.
