Write a letter. You can save a life.
Shine a light on these cases and more when you pledge to Write for Rights December 4-12.
Year after year, the proven power of letter-writing opens prison doors and saves the lives of those with overwhelming odds stacked against them.
Four of the people spotlighted during last year's Global Write-a-thon have been released from prison or have seen their conditions drastically improved. That's the power of the letter. That’s the power we can generate when we join together to write for human rights.
And it's so easy! Just tell us how many letters you pledge to write.
Once you sign up, we'll send you all the tools and tips you'll need to get the most out of your Write for Rights experience.
Whether you're writing by yourself, going to a Write for Rights event near you, or are hosting your own Write for Rights event, the key is to honor human rights on behalf of those who cannot.
If you pledge to shine a light for those facing severe human rights abuses, then they will never be held in darkness.
In Solidarity,
The Write for Rights team
