Dear John,
I hope you and your loved ones are enjoying a holiday season full of peace, joy and warmth. At HIAS, we’re preparing for the new year ahead – and thinking of those for whom this holiday season looks very different.
Millions of refugees and asylum seekers around the world have upended their lives fleeing violence and persecution. Many have been separated from their loved ones in their quest to build new lives in safety. And some arrive in the United States without so much as a winter coat.
With the people we serve in mind, we’ve set a critical year-end fundraising goal to raise $200,000 by midnight on Dec. 31. Every dollar is essential to making sure refugees and asylum seekers have the support and resources they need to escape dangerous situations in their homelands. This is how we ensure we can be there throughout 2020 – and it starts with your gift today.
This past year has been especially difficult for refugees and asylum seekers around the world. Reaching this $200,000 year-end goal is how we continue to extend a helping hand to those who need one.
When you make a gift to HIAS, you stand with us in fighting anti-refugee policies like the Trump administration’s recent executive order against resettlement – which we’re challenging in court this very instant. Every donation allows us to expand our work advocating for humane policies that protect newcomers and allow them to thrive. With your donation, you have the power to keep families safe and whole.
But you need to act quickly. With so much at stake, please don’t waste another minute to rush your urgently needed support: Make a year-end donation now to support the work that HIAS carries out every day for those fleeing violence and persecution around the world.
Thank you for making this holiday season a bit warmer for more of our neighbors, both around the globe and here at home.
