The last few months have been intense. But amidst all the adversity, millions of us in the Avaaz movement, an organization devoted to doing “good stuff”, have risen beautifully and impacted the world in profound ways. Here’s
how—
- Our biggest fundraiser EVER raised enough to provide tens of millions of meals and medical supplies for some of the world's most vulnerable people.
- Our investigation pushed Facebook to send fact checks to EVERYONE who'd interacted with harmful Covid-19 misinformation - Facebook even publicly thanked us!
- 2.3 million of us answered the UN Chief's call for a global ceasefire, he repeatedly cited our support and expressed his "deep gratitude" before taking the call to the UN Security Council. And just last week, a ceasefire resolution was adopted!
- Hundreds of thousands of us pledged actions to flatten the curve, started thousands of local groups to help out in our communities, and responded when the crisis hit by launching a campaign on our site every 45 seconds.
- And so much more... We helped inspire European leaders to take us out of this crisis with a Green Recovery Deal, hit back against Trump's decision to pull out of the WHO, fought for fair access to Covid-19 treatments, and helped win billions in debt relief for the poorest countries to help fight Covid...
This inspires me and I hope it inspires you.
