LGBT Companies Launch Crowdfunding Campaign Supporting Freedom To Marry

SAN JOSE, Calif. - July 8, 2013 - PRLog -- Just after the U.S. Supreme Court’s historic rulings about DOMA and Prop 8, the founders of four California-based LGBT owned and operated companies have banded together to encourage their followers to support an innovative crowdfunding campaign to raise money for the non-profit organization, Freedom to Marry (http://www.freedomtomarry.org). The four companies include:

• Wolfe Video - The world’s largest exclusive distributor of LGBT films

• oneGoodLove.com - The dating site for relationship-minded gay and lesbian singles

• Sweet - The eco-friendly lesbian travel site

• Lesbian.com - The online empowerment hub for the global lesbian community

In an effort to set the pace for “giving big,” Wolfe Video, Sweet, oneGoodLove.com and Lesbian.com are donating all of the campaign’s “thank you” gifts, which include movie downloads, memberships to OneGoodLove, travel packages and credits, and even ad space on Lesbian.com. The campaign can be found on Indiegogo and will run through August 5th.

“Our goal is to raise twenty five thousand dollars or more, for Freedom to Marry,” says Kathy Wolfe, Founder of Wolfe Video, “I’m proud of how our companies are coming together for the good of the LGBT community. This campaign is an opportunity for us to overcome discrimination and engage our allies and to advance the rights of same-sex couples in every U.S. state.”

“We hope this campaign encourages people to start thinking of the freedom to marry as a human issue. Campaign donations will go a long way toward making marriage for all loving couples a reality in every state,” says Evan Wolfson, Founder and President of Freedom to Marry. “We are working to create the climate that empowers decision-makers to do the right thing, making the case by sharing our experiences - which will continue to change hearts and minds.”
