Dear John,

For 84 years, Freedom House has partnered with business, civil society, and policy leaders to advance democratic governance and respect for fundamental rights worldwide. Your engagement strengthens our efforts to expand and defend global freedom, and build a safer and more prosperous future.

Over the past decade, our programs have supported more than 25,000 at-risk human rights defenders and organizations in 140 countries with life-saving emergency assistance and provided policymakers, investors, and international institutions with first-in-class research and analysis on political rights and civil liberties worldwide.

Our flagship Freedom in the World and Freedom on the Net reports continue to shape strategic decision-making globally, while our China Dissent Monitor offers unique insight into protest actions in one of the world's most repressive states.

But recent cuts to US foreign assistance have severely undermined our ability to sustain this essential work in support of human rights defenders and a world where all are free. It's happening as authoritarian influence is expanding, global freedom is declining, and those on the front lines of the fight for freedom face escalating dangers.

Your partnership at this pivotal moment will ensure that Freedom House can sustain high-impact research, strengthen our vital emergency support systems for democracy's bravest defenders, and support the conditions necessary for international stability, economic resilience, and democratic progress.

Your support helps strengthen freedom at a moment when it is most under threat.

This Giving Tuesday, please click here to pledge your support or contact our Director of Development Meto Koloski at [email protected].
