Dear Friendship Force Members, Tomorrow, December 3, is GivingTuesday – the movement to create an international day of charitable giving at the beginning of the holiday season. We hope you will join our efforts in this movement by donating what you can to our Annual Fund. Click here to go to the donation page to make your donation. Since its founding in 1977, Friendship Force International has touched the lives of more than a million people. But we know that we cannot stop here because our mission is needed now more than ever. We want more people to know that when you go on a Journey with Friendship Force, you experience the daily lives, food, art, history, and language of other people of other cultures on a deeply personal level. Your gift to Friendship Force International on Giving Tuesday will help us to expand programs that transform travelers and volunteer hosts as they experience the magic that happens only when hearts and homes are open to each other. FFI aims to expand its network of 15,000 members to 25,000 or more, creating more friendships and better cultural understanding than ever before. You, our amazing members, carry out our mission each time you travel, host, donate, and spread the word about Friendship Force. You know what it feels like to discover alongside your new friends that you have more in common with each other than differences, and that you can build connections instead of divisions. With your contribution, we can continue our work to build a more peaceful world together through exploration, hospitality, and understanding. Thank you for your gift! Yours in friendship, |
