From: Chad R. Doobay <[email protected]> Sent: Friday, December 27, 2024 Subject: I hope you'll join me in ensuring NIJC’s life-changing work continues to thrive Dear John, I invite you to join me in supporting the National Immigrant Justice Center (NIJC), whose work transforms lives by empowering people seeking asylum and immigrants to find safety and opportunity. Every day, NIJC provides critical legal services and support to individuals and families who face incredible challenges in their pursuit of justice and a better life. From offering direct legal representation to fighting for systemic policy reform, NIJC stands as a beacon of hope and a force for meaningful change. Some of the most rewarding moments I’ve witnessed as a volunteer attorney have been seeing lives transformed through NIJC’s work—whether it’s a young man from Eritrea escaping underage military conscription, a student organizer fleeing political persecution in the Democratic Republic of Congo, or a woman from Jamaica finding safety through protections under the Violence Against Women Act. These victories are not just transformative for the individuals NIJC helps, but for all of us who support their mission. This year, as NIJC celebrates its 40-year legacy and its first year as a fully independent organization, your support is more important than ever. I am grateful to serve as chair of NIJC’s board during this pivotal moment because I deeply believe in NIJC’s mission and understand the critical need for financial resources to sustain its operations and vital programs. I’ve made my year-end gift to ensure NIJC’s work continues, and I hope you’ll join me. Your generosity is essential to advancing justice and dignity for all. Together, we can ensure that NIJC’s life-changing work and the people it impacts thrive for years to come.

Together, we’re making an extraordinary difference in the lives of those who need it most. With gratitude, Chad R. Doobay Partner, Katten Muchin Rosenman LLP Chair, NIJC Board of Directors |
