Dear John,

You have probably heard that today is a global day for giving – a special Giving Tuesday for this time of pandemic. You can participate in #GivingTuesdayNow with a gift to AFSC's Pandemic Relief Fund.

But I also want to take this opportunity to express my gratitude to you and the whole AFSC community for what you have helped us set in motion in response to COVID-19. 

With your help we are:

• Delivering assistance to people who need food, health and hygiene items, and other essentials from families in West Virginia and New Mexico to migrants in Latin America, seniors in Palestine, and healthcare workers in Zimbabwe.
• Advocating for the release of those held in dangerous conditions of confinement in U.S. prisons, jails, and immigrant detention centers – and in other places where children and migrants are imprisoned.
• Organizing to protect civil and human rights and build better international relations, recognizing that everyone deserves to live in safety and peace and that our future is bound up together. 

This #GivingTuesdayNow, I invite you to make a gift to support compassionate and courageous community action through AFSC’s Pandemic Relief Fund. 

Thank you for the role you are playing in supporting our efforts. We couldn’t do any of this work without you.
