Subject line: MATCH to reduce police violence ends midnight tomorrow
48 hours ONLY: Your first gift will be DOUBLED to end toxic policing >>
Friend: without action on toxic policing, nothing will change—and we will continue to mourn senseless deaths like that of Tyre Nichols in Memphis.
I’m writing because I refuse to simply wait for the next tragedy, and because we have a chance, right now, to jumpstart our campaign to transform public safety and save lives.
A close friend of People For is now DOUBLING every gift up to $25,000 to support our campaign to help cities remove unfit officers, recruit and train competent personnel, and disarm police making traffic stops like the one that ended Mr. Nichols’s life.
This rare February match ends at midnight tomorrow—and we will not hit this target without support from first-time donors like you.
ALL GIFTS MATCHED
TO END TOXIC POLICING
| YES, I’ll give → |
I served as mayor of Ithaca for 10 years, during which time we transformed our traditional police force to provide unarmed first responders in non-emergency situations.
The intent—and effect—was to prevent dangerous conditions that can turn traffic stops deadly.
And it’s just one pillar of People For’s groundbreaking 2022 report, All Safe: Transforming Public Safety.
This report is now influencing municipalities across the nation to rethink policing, but our work to stop toxic policing must escalate to meet this moment, and that’s why this match is vital.
We’re relying on people like you to join our team with their first-ever MATCHED gift now.
Double your impact to stop toxic policing before this match ends tomorrow >>
And thank you for standing with us.
