Dear John,
Whenever I can visit our work, I’m inspired by the members of our community. We have community members working to overcome food shortages, COVID spread, natural disasters, and trauma from violence with creativity, solidarity, compassion, and tenacity.
So many members of our global community are facing systemic issues in addition to immediate needs. Sometimes, when we see the effects of centuries of racism, economic inequality, climate change, or war, the answers seem less clear. But when there are systems of injustice, we can join together to make networks and systems to transform our world for the better.
Our community members around the world are working hard to make their parts of the world a better place. AFSC is committed to supporting them, with research, connections to global movements, and innovative programs. And today, we ask for your renewed support too.
As a Partner for Peace, your monthly gift can help community members on the front lines of peace and justice. And today, your gift can go even farther. Thanks to a $10,000 matching gift, $100 will be added to your first monthly contribution! So there’s no better time – start your gift today!
This year, Partners for Peace are collectively giving the AFSC community more than $1 million to help fund community work worldwide. Those small monthly contributions really add up!
Partners for Peace help…
- Thousands in Burundi each year participate in a program to learn skills to earn a good living, live in safety, and rebuild nonviolent ways to settle disputes.
- Hundreds of people seeking asylum in the U.S. get the legal assistance they deserve each year.
-
AFSC advocate alongside community members to change policies, corporate practices, and the systems that are hurting us all.
I’m inspired by our community of people on the ground and people in solidarity and active support around the world. Together, we will keep making a difference that will last for generations. To keep it going, we need ongoing, reliable support from friends like you. Please, if you are able, join us as a Partner for Peace today.
I hope you will start your monthly gift today and help us unlock that extra $100 gift as well!
In peace and solidarity,
