Make a contribution to support NISGUA's commitment to migrant justice and Indigenous sovereignty!!

Thank you for visiting my fundraising page in support of the Network in Solidarity with the People of Guatemala (NISGUA)!

I first started accompanying with NISGUA in October of 2019 and have continued with this work ever since. What makes me decide to stay with NISGUA, time and time again, is hearing directly from our Guatemalan partners that they value our work, that our cross-border solidarity is an important strategy for them to incorporate in their struggles against State-sanctioned violence, against imposed mega-projects, and for the reclamation of historical memory and collective liberation.

The struggle for liberation is and must be an internationalist struggle.

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 (which I am happy to answer questions about!) 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.

Just a small donation will go a long way--every gift made up to $40,000 will be matched, dollar-for-dollar! Thank you!
