Avaaz is an independent, not-for-profit global campaigning organization that works to ensure that the views and values of the world's people inform global decision-making.

Together we’ve played a central role in making the Paris Climate Agreement possible, lobbied leaders to create the world's biggest marine reserve (twice!), saved bees across Europe from bee-killing pesticides, and donated over $24 MILLION to other organisations doing incredible work worldwide! And that's just the tip of the iceberg.

But it’s HOW we raise it that makes Avaaz such a powerful force for good in the world. Here’s four things that make us special:

• Avaaz members are in charge -- we don’t take money (ever!) from government, foundations, corporations or large donors. Only our members are in charge of Avaaz, meaning we can fund high-impact work that is too risky for others, like our undercover wildlife stings!
• We get political to get things done -- Our donations are not tax deductible -- so we can get involved in politics, like campaigning in elections to help hope defeat hate.
• We’re lightning fast -- We can raise a million dollars in hours, and spend it straight away, helping us save lives in places like Myanmar and Syria with hardly any bureaucratic delays.
• We give away millions -- When a great idea to change the world needs funding, we make it happen. We give away millions every year to those best placed to help us win -- from funding scientific studies to buying a rainforest for orangutans.

Consider making your contribution monthly -- it will help sustain Avaaz's work all year.
