Dear Supporter
Looking back over the past six months, I'm extremely proud of all we've achieved together, from buying radios for Burma to taking action for individuals at risk.
I'm currently waiting for news of Troy Davis' hearing, a case that could be a major turning point in the battle against the death penalty in the USA. We'll let you know as soon as there are any developments.
Thank you for standing up for human rights. We couldn't do it without you.
Sincerely,
Kate Allen
Director
