Dear Friend,
If you’ve read the news recently, you will have seen that the
geopolitical situation is far from peaceful and that the risk of
nuclear weapons use - intentional or by accident - continues to
increase. Tense times like these remind us what is at stake and that
we can’t let governments get away with their lack of action in terms
of nuclear disarmament. This is yet another proof that 80
years of nuclear weapons are enough and it’s high time to fix it once
and for all.
The only way to succeed is to tell the story of what nuclear
weapons really are and what they do to our communities and the
environment. We need to listen to the testimonies of affected people
from around the world, from New Mexico to Japan, and ensure as many
people as possible hear them, understand the impact of nuclear weapons
and take action. We cannot do this without you!

Trump’s artificial
economic war happening in the midst of an international financial
crisis has led many governments and foundations to cut nuclear
disarmament funding. Thus, support from individuals like you becomes
crucial to do the many things we have in mind. Monthly contributions,
even modest ones, greatly strengthen our stability and capacity to
plan ahead and make a big difference in our work. Will you help power our work in this crucial
year? |

It will be a busy summer and our activities include commemoration
events at the Trinity site in July, the launch of a unique online
memorial dedicated to the children who died in Hiroshima and Nagasaki,
and attending formal ceremonies and conferences in Japan to mark the
anniversaries of the bombings.
Moreover, we will share online campaign resources, host local art
exhibitions and provide our partners with materials highlighting one
message:
For 80 years, the world has lived under the shadow of nuclear
weapons. It's time to say: enough!

Thank you for your support.
