John, I’m excited to announce that if you give now, your donation to the National Immigrant Justice Center (NIJC) for Giving Tuesday will be matched! You read that right, all additional Giving Tuesday donations today will be matched dollar for dollar up to $10,000 thanks to generous NIJC supporters, Jerry Newton and David Weinberg. That means your donation will have twice the impact for people seeking asylum and safety! You can give now and double your impact: www.immigrantjustice.org/GivingTuesday Many of the people whom NIJC serves were forced to flee their home countries in order to save their lives—some were tortured because of their political beliefs, some experienced brutal domestic violence, others were targeted because of their gender identity or had their lives threatened by gangs. In the United States, they face a system that’s stacked against them and policies that are intended to keep them out. With a lawyer by their side helping them navigate the process to get asylum and protection, people have a real chance to establish safe lives for themselves and their families. Now is your opportunity to help people have a safe and stable future in the United States. Your donation to NIJC on Giving Tuesday will provide people seeking asylum and safety with life-changing legal services. And remember that if you give now, your donation will be doubled! Give now at: www.immigrantjustice.org/GivingTuesday We’re nearly 30% of the way to our goal of providing 26 people with legal services that help them have a safe and stable future. Every donation, every dollar, makes a difference.
