ABOUT ONE LOVE FUND
One Love Fund is a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit founded by Charissa Barton and Alan Tudyk, built on the belief that creativity is a human right — not a luxury.
As artists, Charissa + Alan know firsthand the power of creative expression. It shapes identity, builds confidence, and creates connection. Their own careers — in dance, theater, film, and beyond — have been shaped by access to arts opportunities, mentorship, and moments of possibility. One Love Fund exists to pass that on.
We raise funds and awareness for charitable projects in the U.S. and abroad, with a focus on youth, education, and the arts. Whether it’s supporting grassroots programs, filling resource gaps, or launching creative campaigns with purpose, our work is about creating access — especially where it's been historically limited.
We focus on the arts because we understand their power. The benefits of arts education are far-reaching — not only enriching individual lives, but strengthening entire communities. From boosting academic performance to fostering creativity, empathy, and civic engagement, access to the arts is more than culturally vital — it’s a smart, strategic investment in our collective future.
At our core, we believe every young person should have the chance to imagine something bigger, to build something new, and to feel seen. Sometimes that begins with access to food, shelter, or basic supplies. Other times, it starts with a paintbrush, a stage, or a spark of inspiration.
We work with organizations and individuals doing good work — and we do it with heart, humor, and a commitment to impact.
