Your gift will support farmers like Gilberto to gain access to land, learn sustainable farming techniques and develop livelihoods that will provide for their families and feed their communities.

Dear Friend,

There are only two days left in our Matching Gift Challenge. So don't delay!

Here are five reasons why you should make a tax-deductible gift to Grassroots International today:

  1. Your donation goes further than traditional aid. Our international partners address the root causes of hunger, poverty and climate change by organizing in communities, affecting policies and developing local solutions that will last.
  2. Your donation defends human rights. Our partners are facing increasing violence and intimidation every day as they confront those interested in maintaining inequality. This is why supporting human rights training, monitoring and legal defense is a key component of our work.
  3. The people most affected by the problems pose the best solutions. This is a key principle our work is guided by. We do not have international field offices or staff (and the costs associated with them). Instead we partner with local movements who are living and breathing the struggle and creating sustainable, long-term solutions in their own communities.
  4. We do not seek our of accept any government funding. This gives Grassroots International the freedom to speak out in the name of global justice – which will be extremely crucial given the new US administration. But, this also means we need the active support of generous individuals like you to make all of our work possible.
  5. Your gift will be DOUBLED! All gifts received before January 1 will be doubled (up to $30,000) as part of our 2019 Challenge Match. That means it will have TWICE the impact!

Thank you in advance for giving this year to Grassroots International. From all of us at Grassroots, may the seeds of solidarity continue to grow into the new decade!

In solidarity,                    


Chung-Wha Hong
Executive Director
