The One Love Foundation was founded in 2010 to honor the memory of Yeardley Love, a University of Virginia student who was killed by her ex-boyfriend. One Love exists for one reason �" Yeardley’s death was 100% avoidable if anyone around her knew the signs of an abusive relationship.
As a national leader in educating young people about the difference between healthy and unhealthy relationships, the One Love Foundation works to ensure everyone has access to the life-saving information that Yeardley did not. Learn more about the One Love Foundation.
Fearless!(formerly Orange County Safe Homes) provides advocacy, support, education, prevention, and shelter for those impaced by domestic violence, sexual abuse, human trafficking, and crime victimization in Orange and Sullivan counties. Learn more about Fearless!
