$100.00
Your gift will enable Equality Now to produce and distribute Women's Action campaign alerts to approximately 150 members of the Women's Action Network, who voice their opposition to human rights violations against women and girls by contacting government authorities, circulating petitions and raising awareness in their communities. When governments encounter protest from around the world, they know they are being held accountable for these human rights abuses. The activists you help mobilize to stop trafficking will, for example, take action against “sex tour" companies operating from the United States; support efforts to help lower-caste women and girls trapped in prostitution in India, including amending the law, and to promote awareness about legislation to prosecute traffickers and protect trafficking victims. Your gift helps channel collective outrage into strategic action, and the public pressure generated continues to multiply, resulting in an even greater impact in the fight against sex trafficking.
$25.00
Your $25 donation enables WaterAid to provide one person with clean safe water, sanitation and hygiene education in one of the 26 countries where we work. This gift is enough to pay for one person in one of the world's poorest countries to gain access to safe, clean water and sanitation for life.
$25.00
A gift of $25 will provide clean water to an African family for one month. Your donation will truly be a "gift of the magi." With your contribution, AMREF will work to reduce the prevalence of water and sanitation related diseases that needlessly kill African families -- and improve their general hygiene. How? We will work with community water committees to build shallow wells, boreholes and water tanks. We will train the water committees to operate and maintain the water sources -- so that the project is sustainable. By assisting AMREF's clean water project, you will also be contributing to poverty reduction. How? Having clean water nearby and available means that children can go to school and women can start income-producing businesses.
$25.00
CHF’s will address immediate needs especially in shelter while looking for ways to help the population restart their livelihoods as quickly as possible. The quality of response at the beginning of a displacement crisis is critical to the longer-term well being of the affected populations. CHF’s interventions will provide a foundation for affected families to recover from the crisis. Your gift will supply one family with household items to begin their recovery.
$50.00
Your gift to Adopt A Penguin will enable Defenders of Wildlife to work with automakers and members of Congress to raise the standard fuel efficiency of cars and trucks. The burning of fossil fuels is the single most human-related cause of rising temperatures around the globe. In addition, your gift will help Defenders work to promote increased reliance on alternative fuels such as wind and solar, as well as an increased efficiency of our standard household appliances. Your gift will help Defenders save penguins and other imperiled wildlife.
