John –
I'm worried about what this winter will bring — the long nights, the frozen ground, the icy wind whipping through thin walls and makeshift shelters. That's the reality that will confront refugees and other families who have already survived the impacts of war, famine, climate change, and other crises.
That added hardship and those dangerous temperatures mean that your support right now is especially important. If you're as worried about the situation in Ukraine, Afghanistan, and other crisis zones as I am this winter, don't miss this chance to double your impact.
Until midnight tonight, every dollar you contribute will do twice as much to support families facing crisis. Make a greater difference right now by making a special Giving Tuesday gift to IRC. »
John, I cannot overstate the urgency of this moment and the impact that your support can have for the people we serve. Every person who contributes right now will help the IRC and our partners rush supplies to where they can do the most good, and prepare for the tough times ahead. Will you join in at this critical moment?
If you pitch in today, your urgently needed gift will be matched $1–for–$1 up to $1,500,000 and put to immediate work on the ground where IRC's team members are supporting communities facing devastating challenges:
The people we serve — including families who are fleeing the crisis in Ukraine, Syria, Yemen, and crises across the world — face displacement with courage, and they are already striving to keep warm and safe. Your generosity helps to provide the services they need to recover from the worst time of their lives.
Your support for IRC not only saves lives in urgent moments like this one — it helps communities rebuild for the long-term in the aftermath of disaster and conflict. And for one day only, your life-changing gift will double in impact, doing even more to help the children and families who need us most right now.
Please don't hesitate: many of these families cannot wait for the shelter, food, clean water, and other supplies that you help provide. Make your special Giving Tuesday gift now and make twice the difference for those in need.
Thank you for being an IRC supporter — for recognizing our moral imperative to help those in desperate need, and for making this life–saving work possible.
With gratitude, |
