Dear Friends of IDP,

We are truly humbled by the outpouring of support we received from you all this End of Year Giving Season! Thank you, on behalf of the Immigrant Defense Project and the communities our work serves!

In 2020, over 350 people donated to our year-end campaign, nearly 100 more than 2019, and 80% of these donations were $100 or less. Your gifts are a reminder of our collective power to help one another—especially those of us caught at the intersection of the racially biased U.S. criminal and immigration systems.

Your generous gifts will allow IDP to continue on in the fight for fairness and justice for all immigrants. Already in 2021, IDP has fought for the transformation of the immigration system by supporting bold legislation like the New Way Forward Act, which was just introduced in the U.S. House of Representatives this week; this critical legislation provides a vision of what our immigration system should look like: one that advances our values of compassion and respect for everyone’s rights instead of mass criminalization, detention or deportation. 

Once again, thank you—you have our deepest gratitude for joining IDP in the fight for fairness and justice for all immigrants. 

In solidarity, 

Immigrant Defense Project
