24-hour #GivingTuesday opportunity for human rights.

Claim your limited-edition Amnesty face mask! But hurry, there are only 500 available.

Dear John,

Giving Tuesday is all about one thing: Taking action on the issues that we hold closest to our hearts.

And that’s why I hope you’ll join Amnesty today by making a special Giving Tuesday donation. Thanks to a group of generous donors, we have an incredible opportunity: if 10,000 people pitch in with a gift of any amount before midnight, Amnesty unlocks a TRIPLE MATCH. You haven’t yet donated to Amnesty, but today is your day! Please help kick off this critical day for human rights by chipping in $5 or $10. It doesn’t matter how much you give, it only matters that you give from your heart.

By stepping up today, you’ll be doubling down on your commitment to stopping deportations of children and their parents, and freeing families that are STILL sitting locked up in ICE detention, many for over twelve months.

Each of these families came to the U.S. seeking safety from threats and violence in their home countries. But immediately upon arrival, ICE held them in detention centers with negligent medical care during COVID-19. Too many have spent their birthdays behind bars.

John, no one should be detained for seeking asylum, and no one should be sent back to a country where they could be harmed.

Please, make your donation three times more impactful by helping us unlock this incredible triple match. As our way of saying thanks, we'll send you an Amnesty face mask if you make a donation of $50 or more.

If you need a reason to give, here are four:

  • If 10,000 people make a special donation between now and midnight tonight, we will unlock matching funds and ALL GIFTS WILL BE TRIPLED! »
  • The first 500 people to give $50 or more will receive a limited-edition Amnesty face mask. »
  • Support from donors and activists have measurable impact: together, with the relentless advocacy of the families’ lawyers, we’ve helped free four families from detention centers in just the past few months, including Karla* and Katherine*. »
  • We have so much work ahead of us next year. We must take this opportunity to raise the funds to reverse the assaults on human rights we’ve experienced the past four years and beyond. »

This is a special time-limited opportunity. We are more powerful when we join together. That’s why 10,000 people can help unlock this triple match.

Thanks in advance for showing up today.

P.S. President Trump wielded untold damage to families seeking asylum. Now is our moment to ensure that the Biden administration makes freeing people — including all families — from detention one of its top priorities.
