John,
Last night, the Trump administration announced a new travel ban—one that will slam the door on many desperate families, leaving them stranded and afraid. It will separate families, deny refuge to people fleeing persecution and turn away children in dire need. Even the most urgent humanitarian cases could find no relief or waivers from this policy.
This is happening in the midst of the largest refugee crisis in modern history. Right now, over 120 million people have been forced from their homes by conflict, disaster and persecution. For these families, every door closed is a lifeline lost.
And at a time when compassion is needed most, the U.S. government is shutting many displaced families out.
John, a monthly gift today will help the IRC fill the gaps these cruel policies create—delivering emergency aid and long-term solutions that transform the lives of refugees and displaced families.
At the International Rescue Committee (IRC), we're committed to helping refugees and displaced families and children not just survive, but recover and rebuild. In communities across the U.S. and around the world, we provide critical aid: food, shelter, medical care, and the long-term support people need to regain their dignity. But we can't do it without you.
And right now, your first month's gift will be matched 5X—five times the impact to stand up for what’s right.
Compassion shouldn't stop at any border. Refugees and displaced families deserve safety, dignity and the chance to rebuild their lives.
John, please stand with refugees and displaced families today. Your monthly gift—with the first gift matched 5X—ensures that families will not be left alone in crisis. Together, we can stand up for what's right.
Thank you for your kindness and partnership.
— Heidi @ IRC
