$5,155 towards $5,000

This year, NISGUA is celebrating 40 years of accompaniment, cross-border organizing, and relationship-building. It is an honor to be a part of this lineage. In celebration of these four decades, NISGUA has an opportunity to raise $100,000 to sustain our people-to-people organizing for social and environmental justice. I’m committed to helping NISGUA meet this goal and have challenged myself to raise $5000. Can I count on your support?

What does NISGUA do?

NISGUA accompanies Guatemalan water protectors and genocide survivors who are under threat for their political work. We use accompaniment to dissuade violence, we connect partners in Guatemala with folks in the U.S. who are similarly impacted by colonialism, we organize campaigns against the United States’ bloody foreign policy and corporate violence in Central America, and we mobilize people for urgent actions if our partners are threatened or attacked.

What will my gift support?

  • International accompaniment - We are excited to continue expanding our accompaniment program. Currently, during the pandemic, we have adjusted to a remote accompaniment model. Read more about our year of remote accompaniment here.
  • Cross-border organizing - NISGUA facilitates exchange between movements in the U.S. and Guatemala through virtual meetings, webinars, speaking tours, and delegations. Read about our most recent delegation here, or watch the latest webinar, here.
  • Campaign development - In order to bring about long-term change, we know that educating our base and speaking truth to power is crucial. Read about our latest campaign win to suspend the Asylum Cooperative Agreements, and take action in the continued campaign to end title-42 expulsions and all deportations.
  • Relationship-building with Guatemalan partners - Staff and volunteers maintain regular contact with our Guatemalan counterparts who are fighting for justice and defending their territories. What we learn from our partners informs every other strategy we employ. Learn more here.

Can you pitch in today by giving $40, $400, $4, or whatever amount is meaningful to you? Every dollar helps ensure the sustainability of NISGUA's work and continue cultivating our shared vision for global change. THANK YOU for all you do!
