Newsletter: Launching Into 2010

Monday February 15, 2010

As many of you may have noticed, the NOH8 Campaign website has taken on a brand new look. Thanks to resident NOH8'er Scott Bailey and his amazing team, we're pleased to bring you the ALL NEW NOH8Campaign.com!

The overhaul has been a long-time coming and features a variety of brand new features missing from the old website. This new, fully-interactive site allows you to create a profile, comment on any of the content (videos, PSA's, or articles on the site), purchase photo prints, and even add to our growing "Stories" section.

One of the most requested features we've incorporated into the new site is a Familiar Faces Gallery with captions labeling each photo. This special gallery features a diverse sampling of people in the public eye, and we're excited to share their participation with you!

Along with the new gallery comes a number of new photos. We've had an extraordinary amount of support in the new year, and you'll notice just a few of the more recent familiar faces spread throughout this post. From musicians to TV personalities and actors, these familiar faces prove that it's never too late to stand up against inequality.

We've had an extremely busy year thus far, photographing nearly over 800 individuals in 3 different cities for the campaign in January alone (including San Diego and New York City)! We're in the early planning stages for a tour, and hope to bring the campaign to a city near you very soon. Watch for more details in upcoming newsletters!
