Dear John,
Have you ever read a news article or listened to a podcast episode that described heart-wrenching details about people suffering because their human rights were abused or violated? In those moments has your heart fallen to pieces and you thought, “How can I help?” or “I want to do something.”
If you want an immigrant family from Honduras to be treated with respect and dignity…
If you want to hold Mexican officials accountable to investigate the disappearance of hundreds of thousands of people…
If you want to be a part of helping to resolve the humanitarian crisis in Venezuela…
If you want to ensure that peace prevails in Colombia…
…a donation to WOLA is the best first step you can take to improve the lives of people throughout Latin America who are suffering injustices.
Since 1974, WOLA has been creating space for the voices of the most vulnerable and the most courageous in Latin America to be heard by U.S. lawmakers. As our founder Joe Eldridge has shared, WOLA’s ability to effectively advocate comes from it having “one foot in Latin America and one foot in the U.S.”
Whether you have read one of our expert reports or attended one of our events, you have witnessed, first-hand, WOLA’s depth of knowledge and its commitment to including the voices of those most affected by unjust or inhumane policy.
Policy change is the most effective way to secure a human rights-centered future, but policy change is not quick or easy. Our advocacy work requires dedication and resources.
That’s why I hope that you will join the many who, like you, value the life-changing work of advocacy for human rights-centered policy by making a generous donation to WOLA today. It will make a huge difference and we will be so very grateful for your generous support.
Muchisimas gracias,
