Dear friends of children,

Thanks to concerned citizens like you who help [1]support our cause,
MassKids continues to be a leader in the fight for child sexual abuse
prevention. Our[2] [3]Enough Abuse Campaign, launched two decades ago,
educates and mobilizes communities, provides training and technical
assistance on policies to schools and youth organizations, and advocates
for child sexual abuse prevention legislation.

Our advocacy on this issue was recently featured in a Boston 25 News story
about the alarming extent of child sexual abuse in Massachusetts schools.

On Saturday, we celebrated the second annual World Day for the Prevention
of, and Healing from Child Sexual Abuse, Exploitation and Violence on
November 18th. The Enough Abuse Campaign was a founding partner of the
Global Collaborative that helped establish this day, which was officially
declared by the United Nations in November 2022.

This year, we are thankful that Massachusetts Governor Maura Healey
listened to the voices of survivors and child advocates, declaring Nov.
18th Childhood Sexual Abuse Awareness Day in Massachusetts. We are hopeful
that this growing awareness will help our [5]#PassthePreventionPackage
campaign succeed to enact crucial child sexual abuse prevention laws in our
state.

MassKids is a small organization making a big difference. Every dollar
raised is spent strategically to take our prevention programs and policies
to more communities. To learn more about our work, you can read our recent
quarterly e-newsletter, the [6]MassKids Chronicle.

We also invite you to join us for Say “Enough!”, a virtual fundraising
event where you will learn how you can prevent child sexual abuse with
MassKids, on Wednesday, Dec. 6th from 12pm-1pmEST. [7]Click here to
register.

Join us in the movement to ensure every child lives a life free from abuse
by choosing MassKids and our Enough Abuse Campaign as your charity of
choice, on #GivingTuesday and throughout the season of giving.

Your donation will result in tangible outcomes and help us reach our goals
faster and for more children.
