Donation Drive 2024

Founded in 1972, Group 11 of Amnesty International USA (AIUSA), based in Manhattan’s Upper West Side, has been at the forefront of the struggle to protect human rights for decades. We accomplish our mission by writing letters and postcards; signing petitions; tabling at Grand Central Station, street fairs and other events; contacting members of Congress and federal agencies and presenting our positions to foreign government missions in New York and Washington.

Group 11’s most essential work is to free people who are persecuted or imprisoned for peacefully exercising their civil and political rights. Group 11 is noted for innovative casework strategies and tactics in reaching out to prisoners and to authorities. We have helped to free prisoners in Iran, Chile, China, Indonesia, Libya, Myanmar (Burma), Poland, Rhodesia, South Africa, Vietnam and the former USSR. We are currently working on the cases of a possible prisoner of conscience from the ethnically Kurdish region of Iran.

Please contribute to this cause to protect human rights by donating $20, $50, $100 or more. Proceeds will support our work to help free people who are persecuted or imprisoned for peacefully exercising their civil and political rights by writing letters, signing petitions, tabling at events, contacting officials and participating in special projects. Your donation is tax deductible.
