If you’re like me, you subscribe to a lot of things these days. Video streaming, magazines and mobile apps are popular examples, but it doesn’t stop there. Clothes, shoes, snacks — even dog food can show up conveniently at your door every month.
It’s obvious why subscriptions are taking off. They free up your time, expose you to new things, and are easier to budget. Monthly gifts to charitable organizations work much the same way. As a generous donor, you’ve already done so much to help people facing hunger, poverty and crisis around the world. Will you start the new year with a monthly subscription that will make an even bigger difference in 2020?
Become a Partner In Mercy — a monthly giver to Mercy Corps — to help people in need, month after month. Join by January 31 and your first monthly gift will be matched, dollar-for-dollar, doubling your initial impact just by signing up today!
In the next few days, our goal is to have 94 new people subscribe to Partners In Mercy — will you be one of them?
When you subscribe we’ll send you regular updates and special gifts* like these to remind you of your impact as a Partner In Mercy:
Your Partners In Mercy member decal to show your humanitarian commitment |
 |
Your handcrafted felt ram made by a woman-led small business in Kyrgyzstan |

When you subscribe to Partners In Mercy, you provide the steady support we need to respond immediately to emergencies and transform lives for good. Your impact touches families across the globe, at the moment they need it most, and makes it possible for us to partner with communities to create long-term solutions, to help families not just survive, but rebuild their lives.
You’ll help families facing crisis in places like Syria, where Mercy Corps has been able to provide lifesaving relief since 2014, thanks, in large part, to reliable, monthly gifts from Partners In Mercy.
In October, violence erupted once again in northeast Syria — forcing nearly 200,000 people, including 80,000 children, to flee their homes. The suddenness of this violence left Mercy Corps staff on the ground uncertain of how or if they’d be able to start up operations again. But these brave team members were determined to keep going, and just six weeks later we were back to 80% capacity — and are still helping thousands of displaced families in the region cope today.
Start your subscription to humanitarianism — your monthly gift to Mercy Corps — at a time when the Syrian people especially need your support, and your gift can help there and around the world. Remember, your first monthly gift will be matched when you sign up today, and you can pause or change your subscription at any time.
Thank you, as always, for your commitment to making our world a safer, more just place for everyone — and especially for those who need our help, right now, the most.
Sincerely,
Adrienne Karecki, Mercy Corps Chief Development and Marketing Officer
