Friends,
Nonviolence has taken a major step forward in the United States this year.
We know, however, that gains made by racial justice and peace activists have come only after violence has continued to be inflicted on communities of color.
Donate to FOR before midnight Wednesday, and we'll send you a special thank-you gift!
While we can and should celebrate coalitions like the Ferguson clergy march (above) and moments of nonviolent strength like the heartbeat of democracy, popular pressure must continue to be waged if we hope to make lasting change on institutions doing violence to people of color.
We have big plans for 2015 -- continuing to support racial justice activists through the Don't Shoot Coalition in Missouri, and hosting nonviolence trainings for organizers from around the country.
Make a year-end donation to support nonviolence in 2015 today -- and your impact will be doubled.
Donations up to $5,000 doubled until Wednesday night
FOR's National Council is so excited about the work planned for the coming year that they've made personal pledges to match donations up to $5,000 through the end of the year.
But we will only receive those pledges if we receive gifts from people like you to match that amount.
That means that between now and the New Year, every dollar you donate to FOR will be doubled. But you must act before Dec. 31!
Support peace, justice and nonviolence with a tax-deductible donation today -- double your impact and get a free gift!
Thank you, as always, for your hard work and ongoing support.
In peace,
Linda Kelly
Director of Communications
Fellowship of Reconciliation
