Dear John, We are deeply saddened by the rising destruction and lives lost in Gaza and Israel. At least 200 Palestinians and more than 90 Israelis have died. Thousands more have been injured. There are reports of arrests and plans to escalate military action.
AFSC mourns with those who have lost loved ones and all who are suffering. We will continue to work for the changes needed to end this violence and build a just and lasting peace.
As part of the AFSC global community, you have the opportunity to make a difference. We ask that you help us support people in Gaza with a generous gift today.
Military action will accomplish nothing but death and destruction. We need to stop escalating militarism now and instead escalate compassion and solidarity.
Your generous gift will put the resources in place for our partners and communities to address immediate humanitarian needs. Your gift will also support urgent long-term work for lasting change to end the inequalities that lead to violence. Donate now.
Our staff is on the ground now. Fortunately, they are safe. They are determining the best way to address the pressing needs around them. We will be in touch soon about their efforts.
Please help give them the resources to support Gazans. Your donation today will help them know that the AFSC community stands with them.
Yours in service, |
