In 2003 the ADF launched the "Christmas Project", aiming to discourage non-Christian holidays from being celebrated and to promote Christmas celebrations in public schools.<ref name="The Christian Post" /><ref name="oreilly-donate" /> The annual initiative was organized in an effort to prevent school districts from holding secular holiday celebrations, or what the organization called the "censorship of Christmas". In its press release ADF singled out the American Civil Liberties Union as the chief target of the campaign.<ref>{{Cite web |url=https://adflegal.org/detailspages/press-release-details/alliance-defense-fund-announces-plan-to-fight-censorship-of-christmas |title=Alliance Defense Fund Announces Plan to Fight Censorship of Christmas |date=October 20, 2003 |publisher=Alliance Defending Freedom |access-date=February 14, 2018 |archive-date=February 16, 2018 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180216204943/https://adflegal.org/detailspages/press-release-details/alliance-defense-fund-announces-plan-to-fight-censorship-of-christmas |url-status=live }}</ref> By 2004, the organization had contacted 3,600 school districts to inform them that they were not required by the Constitution to have holiday celebrations inclusive of all religions.<ref name="The Christian Post" />

In 2005 the ADF and [[Focus on the Family]] began sponsoring a counter-protest called the Day of Truth (later called "[[Day of Dialogue]]") to oppose the annual [[Day of Silence]], an annual event to promote awareness of anti-LGBT bullying and harassment in schools. The ADF asserted that 1,100 students from 350 schools participated in ADF's event, which ADF billed as a response to the "[[homosexual agenda]]".<ref name="day-of-stats" />
