Folks,
I hope you have a few moments today for something really important to me. And then I hope you'll donate to the National Domestic Violence Hotline.

This year marked 25 years since the Violence Against Women Act was finally enacted into law, protecting women's civil rights and giving survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault new resources to make them safer.
And on this Giving Tuesday, I want to highlight one of those resources created by the Violence Against Women Act: the National Domestic Violence Hotline.
Since 1996, the National Domestic Violence Hotline has provided lifesaving tools and immediate support for victims of domestic abuse, taking more than 4 million calls in just 23 years.
The Hotline now offers support in more than 200 languages and is the only national hotline that operates 24 hours a day, 7 days a week to support victims of domestic violence. I'm grateful for them for the incredible work they've done and continue to do.
Between the Violence Against Women Act's implementation in 1994 and 2011, serious victimization by an intimate partner declined by 72%. But, there is still more work to do.
It's never been more important to uplift organizations like the National Domestic Violence Hotline. That's why I'm asking you to support their work with a donation today. 100% of the donations to this email will go directly to the Hotline:

I'm asking you because this work is important to me. My whole career I've made ending violence against women a top priority.
And I'll continue to do just that as president. You can read all about my plan to end violence against women here: [link removed]
There's so much work we have left to do. We have to end the rape kit backlog, expand protections for immigrants who are victims of domestic violence, ensure that domestic abusers cannot get their hands on firearms, and more.
But I have faith that we can win this fight. We have to. And it's going to take all of us working together to get there.
So if you can, please make a contribution to support the National Domestic Violence Hotline work today.
