Dear John,
This Giving Tuesday, you have the opportunity to join a global community of passionate individuals in creating lasting change. As an organization, we often look ahead, strategizing for the future (after all, there’s a lot of work to do to ensure global gender equality), but today we want to celebrate some of our successes.
Equality Now has had an exciting year. We helped uphold a ban against female genital mutilation in The Gambia. We launched a new coalition in South Asia to address sexual violence against women and girls living in the region. We played a key role in driving advocacy efforts for the approval of the law that bans child marriage without exception in Colombia, coordinating with local and international organizations, providing legal input, and highlighting the country's international commitments to protect girls and adolescents. And that’s not even half of it.
