Join us in the Fireside Room to write letters to support people and communities at risk of human rights abuses worldwide, who need solidarity and justice.

Background Information:
Your words can change lives! For International Human Rights Day on December 10th, Amnesty International hosts a “Write for Rights” campaign mobilizing millions of people around the world. The main goal is to use the power of letter-writing to influence world leaders to protect individuals or communities whose human rights have been denied. The messages help convince government officials to release people imprisoned for expressing their opinion, stop the use of torture and end other human rights abuses.
You may also write letters or sign petitions anytime by accessing Amnesty’s website. Click here to access their online letter writing tools.
