Founding and Funding

eHarmony was founded in 2000 with $3 million of Series A funding from Fayez Sarofim & Co. and individual investors. [1] Dr. Warren, an evangelical Christian with strong ties to the conservative Christian community, attributes much the initial success of eHarmony to its being promoted through James Dobson's Focus on the Family radio show. [2] After having been closely associated with Focus on the Family for four years, in 2005 eHarmony sought to distance itself from the group and Dobson, largely in an effort to broaden the market share of Warren's books and that of eHarmony according to Warren.
