Click here. | |  | | MATCH ALERT: Donate for Human Rights | | | | |  | | I have BIG news to share with you, Supporter: With only a few days left in 2018, we are doubling down in the fight for dignity and justice, as part of our $2 Million Challenge for Human Rights. Right now, every gift from our supporters is MATCHED dollar for dollar up to $2,000,000. That's not a typo — that's $2 MILLION to defend human rights around the world! This is the largest match we've EVER offered — but dark and urgent times call for extraordinary measures. And as you know, our basic human rights are under serious threat: | | In the US, immigrant children remain separated from their parents, while families fleeing violence are tear-gassed and detained in inhumane border facilities. | | | | In Myanmar, Rohingya people have faced murder, rape, and arson at the hands of their own government, and struggle to survive in overcrowded refugee camps. | | | | In Syria and Yemen, civilians caught in the crossfire of conflict are bombed and starving to death while the world looks away as brutal dictators continue large-scale atrocities. | | | | Worldwide, autocratic leaders fuel hatred and intolerance while threatening the rights and freedom of journalists, activists, LGBT communities, women, and other marginalized groups... | | Supporter, this is a challenge and call to action for our community of supporters. Now is your chance to demonstrate your deep commitment to fighting human rights abuses. Your donation today will have DOUBLE the impact! You have a unique opportunity to make a significant impact in the defense of dignity and pursuit of justice around the world. But our match offer is also time-limited. This dollar-for-dollar match expires December 31 and cannot be extended. Dictators may capture the headlines, but each day, principled defenders of human rights—people just like you—are helping us fight back. With so much on the line, I thank you for contributing to our $2 Million Challenge for Human Rights.
