YEARDLEY’S LEGACY

One Love was founded to honor Yeardley Love.

Yeardley Love was tragically killed by her ex-boyfriend on May 3, 2010 just three weeks shy of graduating from The University of Virginia. Her family learned during the trial that there were signs Yeardley was in an abusive relationship.
