We urgently need your help to step up this campaign. We've booked a half-page ad in the influential op-ed section of the Washington Post to communicate our message (see opposite) -- it costs US$32,057 for the only ad in the entire section, so just 1000 of us giving $32 (€24) each could fund this, helping to shift US obstructionism as Barack Obama takes office. Can you help by making a donation, however small? Avaaz's campaigning is funded entirely by small donations from members. If we can fully fund this first ad, we want to expand our campaign to reach other decision-makers. Any donation, large or small, will help to amplify our global call -- just spread the word about the campaign if you can't afford to give financially). Thanks for your support!
