John,

Reflecting on this year, I am overcome with emotion--from the enormity of the loss we’ve endured, the resilience and heart that sustained us, and the possibility of new beginnings. I could not be more grateful for the ways domestic workers showed up through it all---and the ways you showed up for them.

We’ve hardly had a moment to gather ourselves before the next crisis, the next deadline. But you stuck with us, through every email, text, and call to action. You called, tweeted, gave...and then gave some more. And you stepped up big for us yesterday, on Giving Tuesday, helping us smash our goal.

I am thankful for you.

I am thankful for your partnership in this work, your continued investment in this effort, and your ongoing commitment to this movement. The energy I’ve seen from this community has been inspiring -- I truly have no words to express how much you mean to me, to NDWA. You’ve been there with us, every step of the way, and I look forward to the days and weeks ahead. Because I know that, together, we are more powerful and more resilient. We are determined. And I believe we will win.

With gratitude,

Ai-jen Poo, Executive Director
