Remember guantanamo survivors - Human rights day. matching funds.

 

The Universal Declaration of Human Rights outlines inalienable rights for all, including the right to be free from torture and arbitrary detention, and to a fair trial with presumption of innocence until proven guilty.  But these rights are meaningless unless upheld.  No one knows this better than Guantanamo prison survivors, who have endured countless and repeated violations of their human rights inside the prison, and whose ordeal often doesn’t end when they leave.  Please support Guantanamo survivors with a tax-deductible donation to the Guantanamo Survivors Fund.  Today on Human Rights Day and for the rest of  the year, a generous donor will match your donation dollar for dollar up to $22,000 - $1,000 for each of the 22 years that the prison has been opened in the War on Terror.  This means that with your generous donation, we can double this amount to $44,000, to help up to 15 more Guantanamo survivors and their families!    Since Witness Against Torture joined other groups to establish the Fund in April 2022, it has raised over $93,000 and provided small grants to 29 former Guantanamo prisoners.  The Fund's success depends on our support.  Donate to the Guantanamo Survivors Fund!
