Your gift matched: Two-to-one Dear friends, Imagine you live in a city like Aleppo, Syria where civil war is raging all around you. You try to stick it out, but after years of hell, you and your family make the difficult decision to leave everything you know. At Amnesty, our Crisis Response team receives phone calls and emails — from all over the world and at all hours of the day — from people in danger who have run out of options. Right now, my team’s resources are stretched thin. With the refugee crisis surging, families who must flee the violence or pay with their lives are relying on us to advocate for them. But the truth is, we’re relying on you. People count on us to keep the pressure on individual governments and on the international community to protect refugees who have had to flee life-threatening situations. We are responding to the global refugee crisis and continuing our efforts speaking out for people who have been imprisoned or oppressed because of their beliefs. Have you ever heard about someone in a desperate situation and thought ‘somebody has to do something’? I’m writing to tell you, you can be that somebody. Donate now and your gift will go three times as far. Thank you, Margaret Huang Executive Director |
