Forget the cards – we’ve got a new idea!

Yes, it’s that time of year. You might have noticed that lots of charities are encouraging you to send sparkly greetings cards through the post to wish others well – at RightsInfo we like to offer something a bit different… and #GivingTuesday seemed like the perfect day to tell you about it!

Ellie Collins, one of our talented volunteer illustrators, has kindly created this beautiful image below, featuring the international symbol of human rights – the dove of peace – to allow us at RightsInfo to help you to spread festive greetings (and raise some much needed funds for 2018!).

Whether you are celebrating Christmas, Hanukkah, Gita Jayanti, Winter Solstice, Zartosht No-Diso, or have another religious or non-religious reason for wishing people well, we would love for you to share the image to spread awareness of RightsInfo and donate to us as well!

As a small charity, we rely on donations to keep going. Would you donate to RightsInfo as a thank you for being able to use this beautiful image? You can make one-off gifts of as little as £10 or, even better, you could consider setting up a regular standing order – monthly, quarterly or annually. This really allows us to plan how to fight on in 2018 and beyond, making sure people understand their human rights, why they are important and how they can stand up for them?

Any contribution would be greatly appreciated, and you can make your donation online quickly and easily here. Then, all you need to do is click on the image above to access the high quality/resolution version, right click to save as and then use the image on social media and/or in emails.

With a big thank you to Ellie for her beautiful contribution, and I look forward to thanking you for yours, very soon!
