In 2009, after the crushing passage of Prop 8 in California, my friends Jenny Kanelos, Gavin Creel and I started a non-profit called Broadway Impact that aims to increase public awareness about Marriage Equality by harnessing the power of Broadway.
Since its first year, Broadway Impact has held massive rallies for equality in New York City, made thousands of calls through phone banks and even organized 25 busses to Washington DC so that 1,400 people could attend the National Equality March for free. This year we were honored to receive the 2010 Human Rights Campaign Community Award and even participated in the ING New York City Marathon as a charity team. Our team of 12 runners, including myself, raised $38,440 for Broadway Impact!
Now Broadway Impact will be reaching out to theaters across the country to help educate the public about the importance of fighting for civil rights!
