AFC

Woman supporting rally to end ICE detention

Dear John,

As I prepare for Giving Tuesday, a day when people throughout the world give generously to support the causes they hold dear, I am filled with gratitude.

Our community came together like never before this year, helping neighbors across the U.S. and around the world suffering during the pandemic and organizing against racial injustice, poverty, violence, and displacement. We worked to care for one another through this moment in history — and to bring about the systemic change that will create a better future. Thank you for the role you played in making this possible as a supporter of AFSC!

Today I am hoping you will again light the way, by making your Giving Tuesday gift a little early — and taking advantage of an offer from a generous donor who will match your gift, dollar-for-dollar, up to $20,000.

Your gift will help us:

	Fund mutual aid initiatives, such as our Farm to Food Bank program, to help people get through the pandemic.
	Bring legal services and emergency support to immigrants in danger of being separated from their families and communities by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).
	Advocate for the release of those held in dangerous conditions of confinement in U.S. prisons, jails, and immigrant detention centers.
	Support worldwide work to resist militarism and violence.

Be among the first to respond to our Giving Tuesday Matching Gift Challenge and make your gift go twice as far!

Thank you for all the ways you support our work. We couldn’t do it without you!

In peace,

Joyce Ajlouny
