Dear John,

<p>Another critical session of the <strong>United Nations Human Rights Council</strong> has just wrapped up in Geneva&mdash;and once again, CitizenGO was right there, representing you.</p> <p>We spoke up. Loud and clear.</p> <p><em>Here&rsquo;s a short video with the highlights of what we said</em>&mdash;<strong>take a moment to see how your voice reached the very heart of the UN:</strong></p> <p><a href= "[link removed]" target="_blank" ><img src="[link removed]" alt="" width="350" height="175" constrain="true" imagepreview="false" border="" style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" /></a><br /></p> <p>Now, I want to share something that&rsquo;s been weighing heavily on our hearts lately: the brutal situation facing <strong>Christian families in Syria.</strong></p> <p>The stories coming out of there&hellip; they&rsquo;re devastating. Entire communities are being torn apart by violence and persecution. And we just couldn&rsquo;t stay silent.</p> <p>So our amazing colleague <strong>Lauren Hudson</strong> stepped up&mdash;seriously, she&rsquo;s incredible&mdash;and made a bold call for action: <strong>investigations into the violence, protection for the vulnerable, and justice for those being driven from their homes.</strong></p> <p>Thanks to your support, the UN couldn&rsquo;t ignore it. Syrian Christians were finally given the attention and respect they deserve.</p> <p><strong>Because if we don&rsquo;t speak up for them&hellip; who will?</strong></p> <p>But that was just one of the powerful moments.</p> <p>In another intervention, Campaign Director for Australia, <strong>George Christensen</strong>&mdash;you&rsquo;d love him, he&rsquo;s a total firecracker&mdash;took a stand against the rising wave of censorship being pushed in the name of &ldquo;fighting misinformation.&rdquo;</p> <p>George warned diplomats: <strong>when governments control speech, it&rsquo;s often people of faith and conscience who are silenced first.</strong> He made it crystal clear: censorship is never the answer.</p> <p>And then there was <strong>Eduard Pr&ouml;ls</strong>, our Campaign Director for Germany &mdash;a fearless voice for freedom&mdash;who exposed the dark side of the EU&rsquo;s new Digital Services Act. It might sound harmless, but it gives governments and Big Tech the power to<strong> shut down dissent.</strong> Eduard knows this firsthand&mdash;he&rsquo;s faced court cases just for standing by his beliefs.</p> <p>He told the UN: <strong>True democracy only survives when debate is free and open.</strong></p> <p>Finally, <strong>Chris Joyce,</strong> our Campaign Director for the UK, delivered a passionate defense of children&mdash;calling out the reckless use of puberty blockers and cross-sex hormones on minors. His message was clear and heartfelt: <strong>children deserve real protection, not dangerous, ideology-driven experiments.</strong></p> <p>Each of these powerful interventions brought your voice directly to the United Nations Human Rights Council. While it&rsquo;s just one of many international forums, the UN HRC plays a crucial role in shaping human rights policy and setting global standards.&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>That&rsquo;s why CitizenGO exists.</strong></p> <p><strong>To make sure your voice doesn&rsquo;t just echo in the dark&mdash;it lands exactly where it matters most.</strong></p> <p>I am deeply grateful for your ongoing support and trust. Together, we're challenging powerful institutions, defending the most vulnerable, wherever it may be, and making real change happen.</p>
So from all of us—THANK YOU. With your continued backing, we promise to keep pushing forward, louder and stronger than ever.
