How you can help

How can you help:

1) Keep talking about this with your friends and family. Awakeness counts!
2) Reach out to your local politicians and get them to do something.
3) Find organizations that are already doing this work and support them.
Here are two examples:

www.Avaaz.org
From their website,
avaaz.org is a community of global citizens who take action on the major issues facing the world today. The aim of Avaaz.org is to ensure that the views and values of the world’s people shape global decisions. Avaaz.org members act for a more just and peaceful world and a globalisation with a human face.


And

The US Campaign for Burma
http://uscampaignforburma.org

From their website:
The United States Campaign for Burma is a U.S.-based membership organization dedicated to empowering grassroots activists around the world to bring about an end to the military dictatorship in Burma. Through public education, leadership development initiatives, conferences, and advocacy campaigns at local, national and international levels, USCB works to empower Americans and Burmese dissidents-in-exile to promote freedom, democracy, and human rights in Burma and raise awareness about the egregious human rights violations committed by Burma’s military regime.


Thank you,
