John,

I know you get a lot of emails. But I hope you’ll take just a few minutes to read this one, and if you can, make an emergency gift to support our work right now. Every gift we receive before midnight tonight will be matched dollar for dollar up to $10,000.

Women and families are being left behind once again, as America reopens despite skyrocketing COVID-19 numbers, leaving workers—especially women of color—without the resources to protect themselves from the virus, stay home if they’re sick, or take care of kids or other family members.

The National Women’s Law Center is taking action to give working women the support they need right now, and lay the groundwork for a more equitable future for all—but we can’t do it alone. Join the fight with your emergency gift right now, before our midnight deadline, and your gift could go twice as far.

Thank you for always showing up when it counts.

—Melissa

Dear John,

The United States now has the most novel coronavirus cases in the world.

The numbers are staggering. And behind those horrifying totals are millions of women and families struggling on the front lines of the pandemic—without access to paid leave or continued unemployment payments, help caring for children or family members, or health care coverage if they get sick.

Help fight for women on the front lines of the pandemic.

Make your emergency gift before Friday at midnight and your gift will be matched dollar for dollar up to $10,000!

John, it doesn’t have to be this way.

The National Women’s Law Center is working right now to make sure ALL women and families have access to unemployment protections, paid sick days, access to health care, and more. Make your emergency gift to help now, and it will go twice as far!

Right now, we have a chance to truly change some of the systemic inequities that leave women, and particularly women of color, so vulnerable during this pandemic. The Law Center is leading efforts to help families who are in desperate need today, and to make sure they will continue to have the resources they need when COVID-19 has passed. Join the fight. >>

But it won’t be easy. The Trump administration has pushed back at every turn, working instead to push through more extremist judges, to make it harder to report sexual assaults, and to roll back the benefits keeping families afloat through this crisis.

We can’t win these fights without you right there with us. If you can, please pitch in before our deadline on Friday. Every gift, up to $10,000, will be matched until midnight!

Together, we can protect at-risk families now, and build a future we can all be proud of. Thank you for everything you do to help fight for gender justice—your support truly makes a difference.
