Support S.T.O.P. DOUBLE this Giving Tuesday!

Friend

This Giving Tuesday finds our country in a moment of crisis. Neighbors are being ripped from their homes, workplaces, and schools by ICE, discriminatory government surveillance continues to expand, and many among us face financial difficulties in maintaining our everyday lives.

Yet, there is hope. The holiday season is a time to give back and make a meaningful difference in our communities. Here at S.T.O.P., our work continues with a stronger commitment than ever to fight for the civil rights of every individual and community. We know that in today’s world, the right to privacy isn’t just a luxury; it’s essential for a functioning democracy.

This moment in our country demands action, and your support will enable S.T.O.P. to not only continue our existing litigation, advocacy, and research, but expand our capacity to step up and meet the moment. Every dollar you give will help S.T.O.P. challenge surveillance pipelines that fuel deportation, grow our litigation across the country to create new privacy-protecting precedents, defend the right to protest without being surveilled, and protect those who seek reproductive or gender-affirming health care.

And because S.T.O.P. is a Brooklyn Org Spark Prize finalist, we are eligible for a $5,000 matching grant. That means every dollar you give through the Brooklyn Gives platform will be doubled until we unlock the full match.

Donate through Brooklyn Gives to double your impact

One of the most powerful ways to stand with us is to become a monthly donor. Monthly gifts of any size give us the stable foundation we need to plan for major lawsuits, community campaigns, and rapid responses when the government rolls out new surveillance tools. As a small token of our gratitude, all new monthly donors will receive a S.T.O.P. tote bag to carry your commitment to privacy everywhere you go.
