Dear John,

As Freedom House’s Vice President for Policy and Advocacy, I have the privilege of working every day with courageous activists on the frontlines of the fight for freedom. Together, we advocate tirelessly for those imprisoned by authoritarian regimes and ensure that critical resources reach those who need them most. But this work is only possible with the support of people like you — those who share our commitment to defending democracy and protecting human rights.
 
One of the most rewarding aspects of my work is connecting freed activists directly with policymakers. At a recent briefing, a former political prisoner shared how Freedom House’s support gave him hope — even as he endured torture and solitary confinement. It was a profound reminder of the role we play in sustaining the struggle for freedom and why your partnership is so essential.


 
Around the world, thousands of activists, journalists, and religious believers are imprisoned or detained for exercising their rights. But they are not alone. Freedom House is there—championing democracy, amplifying their voices, and standing by those who risk everything for their freedom. 

Will you stand with us today?
