Fellow American,
Imagine being so inspired by your faith that you open a homeless shelter…
…only to have the state demand that you hire people who do not share your faith—or else face possible penalties.
Imagine fostering children for years. You’re the “first placement choice” for the state’s most vulnerable babies…
…until you say, “boys are not girls,” and the state revokes your license.
Imagine you’ve dedicated your life to creating art for God’s glory…
…only for your home state to call your plea for religious freedom a “despicable piece of rhetoric” and compare your timeless beliefs about marriage to the brutal racial bigotry that precipitated the Holocaust.
These stories aren’t from distant authoritarian nations. Each of these have happened or are happening on American soil.
Today’s tyrants don’t wear crowns––instead, they sit on school boards, city councils, and civil rights commissions. They are openly hostile to freedom and unmoored from objective truth. They censor, fine, and even threaten jail time for those who dare to hold beliefs they dislike.
As far too many Americans know, the real cost of this tyranny is always human.
Parents who are deceived by the people to whom they entrust their children, and the children who are put into harmful situations at school.
Business owners who are punished for trying to express their faith through their work.
Pro-life organizations that are targeted for their Christian views.
The list goes on and on.
We are gearing up for another year of fighting for your religious freedom, freedom of speech, and other God-given rights––but our capacity to fight back against tyrannical government forces depends heavily on our ability to meet our year-end fundraising goal by December 31.
Your gift now will help fight in the year ahead to defeat:
- The corruption of God’s created order—as schools try to indoctrinate kids with radical ideologies and drive a wedge between parents and their children.
- The destruction of God’s design—as government officials, healthcare institutions, and others try to erase biological truth and redefine what it means to be man and woman.
- The silencing of the soul—as international courts prosecute citizens for praying and sharing Bible verses.
Your support is critical to closing the gap on a $3 million year-end need that will help fully fund our fight for your rights in the year ahead.
If you give, your gift will be matched, dollar for dollar, by a $250,000 matching grant while funds last. That means every dollar you give will go twice as far, doubling your impact.
Many of our clients never dreamed they would personally be affected by the tyranny of government forces. And now, many of them are embroiled in court battles that could take years to resolve.
But your generosity ensures they never have to stand alone.
Will you make a tax-deductible, year-end gift today? Your partnership is deeply appreciated as we stand together to contend for the truth. Gifts are only tax-deductible for 2025 through December 31.
In Christ,
Lance Bauslaugh Senior Vice President, Development Alliance Defending Freedom
P.S. Our most important fundraising deadline of the year is fast approaching. Please consider giving as generously as you can today––your year-end gift will be doubled, while matching funds last, to fight for truth and freedom for everyday Americans like you in the year ahead.
