Friend,

As we turn the page to a new year — and a new administration — we must be ready to counter any attacks and use the full extent of the courts to thwart any attempts made to crumble our democracy.

But we still face major threats. With hate and bigotry hitting the mainstream and making its way to our halls of power, we need to protect all the progress made since the Civil Rights Movement.

And we need you, Friend, to help us get a head start on our work in 2025. The fight for justice cannot wait — with our deadline approaching tonight, we must take action. Make a special gift now and have it matched, dollar-for-dollar, up to $1 million.

With Project 2025 serving as the roadmap for extremists, we will use every advocacy tool available to us — from lobbying to litigation to research to public education and more — to protect the values that ensure a fair and inclusive country for all, especially Black and Brown communities across the Deep South.

But we cannot do it alone, which is why we need your support.

Our year-end campaign is ending in just a few hours, and we need all hands on deck to hold those in power accountable for their actions and ensure the hard-fought victories of the Civil Rights Movement are not lost. Chip in $35 or more now to make twice the impact on our work in 2025.

Together, we can take on the challenges that meet us in 2025 with grit and courage. Thank you again for your tireless advocacy.

In solidarity,

Your friends at the Southern Poverty Law Center
