Friend,

This #GivingTuesday, we asked you to take a stand for drug policy reform. And I am truly overwhelmed by how many of you did.

Thanks to your collective #GivingTuesday generosity, the Drug Policy Alliance has claimed close to $12,000 in additional matching funds to help us dismantle this brutal war on drugs.

Your contribution strengthens our shared fight for critical drug policy reforms. Like our fight to decriminalize all drugs while expanding access to treatment and health services – so people are offered help, not handcuffs. Like our fight to legalize marijuana the right way – so no one is arrested simply for carrying some marijuana. And like our fight to uproot the drug war from our daily lives – so no one is denied a job, a home, an education, or any other opportunity because of a drug arrest or drug test.

Friend, whether you were able to donate on #GivingTuesday or not, thank you for being a part of this movement. Together, we will win.

P.S. We’re so close to our goal! It’s still not too late to have your gift matched, dollar-for-dollar! Donate now to double your impact as we defend our victories against powerful politicians and opportunistic pundits intent on perpetuating this failed drug war. Together, we will build a better future.
