Sue Kuyper's Fundraiser
Justice for Genocide in Guatemala
Looking for 20 friends to give $35
Dear Friends and Family,
A few weeks ago, Nisgua supported me to return to Guatemala to accompany the Ixil Genocide Case. 15 years after returning from Guatemala and after being a member of Nisgua's staff.
This case, first filed in 2000, resulted in the very first criminal conviction for genocide in the Americas against Ex Dictator Ríos Montt in 2013. Now Ex General Benedicto Lucas Garcia faces charges of genocide and crimes against humanity including rape, torture and forced disappearance.
As we fight together for the Liberation of Palestine, I am also asking you to support Nisgua's longterm work accompanying this legal process as well as their incredible work connecting trans-territorial movements for Indigenous sovereignty and immigrant justice.
Please help me reach my goal of $700 that will be matched as part of their May Match Campaign when they raise 1/3 of their budget!
I thank you for your support of whatever you can give.
Towards Liberation, Sue
Support NISGUA’s international accompaniment advancing human dignity and the defense of Mother Earth in 2024!

Welcome to May Match 2024!
We are incredibly excited; these are the most exciting 15 days of the year to sustain NISGUA's solidarity with struggles for justice and self-determination in Guatemala. This year, we are not only using these days to fund our activities, but also to grow our network to amplify the messages of liberation of our partners. Will you join us?
This year, thanks to the generosity of a small group of donors, we have set an ambitious goal of raising $100,000. Together, we can make a significant impact in supporting the struggle for justice and self-determination in just fourteen days.
From May 15th through May 31st, every donation made, up to $50,000, will be matched dollar-for-dollar. Your generous contribution during this time will have double the impact, allowing us to strengthen relationships with our counterparts in Guatemala, weave bridges across similar struggles and resistance against systematic violence, and continue to accompany the search for justice, truth and memory.
To contribute, simply click on the "donate" button in the photo above.
Your gift helps us reach our total goal of $100,000 – which will fund more than a THIRD of our entire budget, and ensure that our work is possible this year.
Over 90% of NISGUA's donations come from individual donors like you, which means we are entirely accountable to our Guatemalan partners and our committed base in the United States.
Thank you for joining us, and for being part of our community dedicated to the defense of territory, justice and liberation.

¡Bienvenides a May Match 2024!
Estamos increíblemente emocionades, son los 15 días más excitantes del año para sostener el impacto de NISGUA en solidaridad con las luchas en Guatemala. Y este año queremos no solo sumar financiamiento a nuestras actividades, sino también queremos sumar voces para replicar el mensaje de liberación de nuestras contrapartes, ¿te sumas?
Este año, gracias a la generosidad de un pequeño grupo de donantes, hemos establecido un objetivo ambicioso de recaudar $100,000. Juntos, podemos tener un impacto significativo en apoyar la lucha para la justicia and autodeterminación.
Desde el 15 hasta el 31 de mayo, cada donación realizada, hasta $50,000, será igualada dólar por dólar. Tu generosa contribución durante este tiempo tendrá el doble de impacto, lo que nos permitirá avanzar en fortalecer las relaciones con nuestras contrapartes en Guatemala, tejer esos puentes de luchas y resistencia contra la violencia sistemática y seguir acompañando en la búsqueda de justicia, verdad y memoria.
Para contribuir, simplemente haz clic en el botón "donar" en la foto de arriba.
Al ayudarnos a alcanzar nuestra meta total de $100,000, se financiará más de un TERCIO de nuestro presupuesto, asegurando que nuestro trabajo sea posible este año.
Más del 90% de las donaciones de NISGUA provienen de donantes individuales, lo que significa que somos políticamente autónomos y responsables ante nuestras contrapartes guatemaltecas y nuestra base comprometida en Estados Unidos.
Gracias por unirte a nosotres, por ser parte de nuestra comunidad dedicada a la defensa de los territorios y la liberación de los pueblos.
