Dear Friend, As so many Americans head into this season of giving, we acknowledge the difficulties and pain of this moment. I also know you are doing all you can to alleviate the suffering of friends, family, and community whether they are in Gaza, the West Bank, Lebanon, Syria, Yemen, or Sudan. We stand with you in these efforts and appreciate all that you are doing both here at home and abroad. Tomorrow marks a day of generosity - Giving Tuesday. AAI has been grateful that once again, a generous and longtime supporter who shares your values is matching any donation you make to AAI today through Giving Tuesday. This means each dollar you give is doubled. These critical funds will help AAI fight for the issues you care about - Palestinian liberation, Lebanese sovereignty, voting rights, civil liberties, and communities free of hatred and bigotry. While I believe that AAI's work is essential to our community and our shared future, I also understand the challenge of this moment. If your situation calls for you to choose where to give this season, and it's a choice between supporting AAI or supporting direct relief for Palestinians, Lebanese, Syrians, Yemenis, or Sudanese, we understand. Choose an organization you know and trust. Your capacity for care and generosity spurs our team's fight so I thank you for all you are doing. In these moments it's important to remember WE ARE THE MAJORITY. We stand for justice for all. And we are proud to stand with you in this fight. With deep gratitude, Maya Arab American Institute Foundation |
