Hey John, I wanted to follow up on U.S. Rep. Adam Schiff’s previous email.
I’m pleased to share that the LGBTQ Victory Institute’s end-of-year goal for the Christopher Hoven Memorial Fund is just within reach.
It means so much that so many of you have pitched in as a result of his note – and that so many are willing to step up and honor Christopher’s memory. He paved the way for so many – and our Victory Congressional Interns continue to walk in his footsteps on Capitol Hill.
If you can make another donation today in Christopher’s memory and help ensure more LGBTQ college students can join us on Capitol Hill, we appreciate it. [[link removed]]

Subject: In honor of my dear friend…
John,
I wanted to talk to you about my dear friend, Christopher Hoven, who passed away in 2020. Chris proudly and openly served as a LGBTQ staffer for more than 30 years. His legacy will live on much longer than that.
I’ve worked closely with LGBTQ Victory Institute to establish and build The Christopher Hoven Memorial Fund [[link removed]] , named in honor of my close friend. This fund directly supports the Victory Congressional Internship program allowing young LGBTQ individuals from across the country the opportunity to work on Capitol Hill and gain critical knowledge and experience to prepare themselves for a career in legislating or other policy-related work.
In honor of my friend will you consider an end-of-year donation to the Christopher Hoven Memorial Fund? Your gift could make a life-changing difference for young LGBTQ people interested in politics and help make this country a more equal and equitable place to live. Together, it is my hope that we can support these inspirational future leaders. Please click HERE to make your gift today! [[link removed]]

This essential program that honors my dear friend and former colleague’s memory makes such an impact on our world and our politics. Advancing LGBTQ equality in this country, whether by speaking out against the blood donation ban on gay men, advocating against the removal of sexual orientation and gender identity from the 2020 census or fighting for new anti-discrimination laws, has been a key priority of my time in Congress.
These are not just LGBTQ issues – these are American issues. And I’ll never stop fighting for equality. Like Christopher, our VCIs are changing politics with their presence. Help ensure we can continue this essential program and honor Christopher’s shining legacy with a donation today. [[link removed]]
