“We have one goal — to save lives and evacuate people. And to send a message to the world: Without weapons, we can do anything.” The young woman who spoke these words — Razan al-Najjar — was shot dead by Israeli snipers. A volunteer with our partner group, the Palestinian Medical Relief Society (PMRS), Razan was rushing to provide medical care to an injured protester when she was killed. We honor her and recommit to this work for peace and justice in Palestine.

We have entered a horrific chapter in the Trump disaster. US border agents are forcibly taking children from their parents, separating them for months on end with only the faintest hope of ever reuniting.
With you and with MADRE, our grassroots partners protect and provide for the most vulnerable. They build new skills and grow as community leaders. And they bring their demands to policymakers and advocate for rights, resources and results.
Together, we save lives, rebuild communities and secure women's rights worldwide.
