Dear John,
We just cannot start 2021 without sending each member of this incredible movement a massive THANK YOU for our joined efforts in 2020. In one of the very darkest years of our shared existence, we shone our brightest together. It is not an exaggeration to say that we have saved lives! As COVID-19 unleashed an epidemic, we didn’t look away! Thanks to CitizenGO members’ selfless generosity, we were able to purchase 1,000,000 (one million) sorely-needed face masks and donated them to the hospitals and healthcare workers. Throughout 2020, we worked non-stop to protect: LIFE: - While we mobilize people from all corners of the world to save lives in midst of COVID-19 crises, global forums like the United Nations’ International Conference on Population and Development (ICPD) used the pandemic as a pretext to establish a global right to taxpayer-funded abortion on demand. After lengthy, uncertain, and heated weeks of negotiations at the ICPD, we emerged victoriously!
- We contributed to a landmark pro-life victory in Poland that banned eugenic abortions.
- We stopped the abortion lobby that wanted to destroy existing legal protection for unborn babies in Mexico, Kenya, Peru, Ecuador, Malawi, and Columbia.
- We have stood firm with African countries like Nigeria, Kenya, Nambia, Uganda etc where cultural imperialists have spearheaded their pro-abortion campaigns
FAMILY: - We defended our brave colleagues Ann from Kenya and Caroline from UK, who faced intense legal and media bullying for their brave pro-family and pro-life activism as CitizenGO Campaigners.
- Dangerous law that would enable express removal of children from families was withdrawn after our massive mobilization in Russia.
- We delivered your signatures and took them to the floor, live, during Disney shareholders’ annual meeting, demanding that Disney CEO stops promoting the LGBT agenda and gender indoctrination. We are still running a long and intense campaign on this topic.
and FREEDOM: - When parks, stores and libraries reopened, but inappropriate and excessive measures kept churches closed, we let ourselves be heard. We made national authorities in Italy, France, Slovakia, Kenya and Australia listen to the voices of the Christian people and lift the unfair restrictions for Sunday worship, while respecting social distancing measures and all necessary precautions.
- Over 1.5 million faithful used our platform to fight against the blasphemous movie “The First Temptation of Christ” on Netflix and join our impactful boycott campaign.
- Thousands stood up against the religious persecution in Nigeria. We are still involved in the campaign to free young Leah Sharibu who is held against her will by Boko Haram due to her faith in Jesus Christ.
- We are also engaged in a campaign addressed to Mark Zuckerberg to keep Facebook an open and free public square and block George Soros' efforts to censor speeches like ours.
Thank you because 2020 has been an incredible year, just thanks to you! The support of CitizenGO members was extraordinary. In December, 1.314 new monthly donors joined CitizenGO worldwide! This represents a great boost that will allow us to keep on working in 2021. Another essential help in this respect is represented by the one-time donations we have received in the last days: 11.990 CitizenGO members decided to support us with generous one-time donations in December. Thanks to you and to the help of so many people, we are ready to react whenever we see threats to the values we defend and we are hopeful that we will be able to run the campaigns we had planned: - Protect life, family, and freedom in the United States and internationally;
- Face the pro-abortion, transsexualism and gender ideology radical agenda in the important 2021 Commission on the Status of Women (CSW) in the United Nations.
- Fight against the radical Left’s efforts to persecute our friends, Ann and Caroline, for their brave work as CitizenGO campaigners;
- Oppose and defund the radical pro-abortion and transgenderism agendas at the powerful United Nations and their World Health Organization;
- Uphold our ongoing fight to end gender ideology indoctrination at Disney parks and in Disney films and productions;
- Stop the censorship of Christian, pro-Life, and pro-Liberty thought on Social Media and other online platforms ;
- Fight back against filthy, blasphemous, and transgender propaganda on popular streaming services like Netflix;
- Continue to impact elections and legislation on behalf of life, family, and liberty;
- Pressure a Joe Biden presidency which plans with push tax-payer funded abortion on-demand.
Today I just wanted to thank you very much for everything. In a year of fear and lockdown, we rose, opening our hearts with compassion for hundreds of thousands of people, everywhere. That is who we are. And that should give us hope like nothing else. Hope that as each of us looks to the future, we will never doubt what we can achieve together -- because together we are capable of more than we could ever imagine.
From the bottom of our hearts, thank you, Ignacio, Gregory, Pablo, Matteo, Miriam, Daniela, Eduard, Luis, Silvina, Hector, Caroline, Ann, Caleb, James, Alexandre, Ana Marija, Eszter, Matteo, Michiel, Pawel, Guilherme, Matus, Pavel, Isabel, Miguel and the entire CitizenGO Team P.S. I would like to ask that (if it is possible and if it is ok) you talk to someone else about the work of CitizenGO and, if you think it’s appropriate, encourage this person to help us with a small donation. The amount does not matter… Any help will be very useful.
