<div>Support ‘the Voice of the Voiceless’, 1st Eritrean Satellite Tv in Exile – Atv
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Back in January 2019, Eritreans and friends in the Diaspora crowd-funded ATV (Asena TV) and made sure that it was successfully launched. ATV instantly gave the voiceless Eritreans hope. It also kept exposing one of the most secretive and repressive regimes of our time. As a result, the regime became desperate. The pioneer TV station which ran on a shoestring budget made a significant impact in counterbalancing the government’s propaganda machine; and become a household name amongst Eritreans within the country in a few months. There was a gap to be bridged. And you collaborated with ATV to make that happen.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Acknowledging the huge part you played in the first chapter of our collective success, ATV once again asks you – Eritreans in the Diaspora and friends of Eritrea to support ATV financially so that the much-loved Satellite TV station can stay on the air. Your support is what ensures the torch of hope for the oppressed Eritreans stays alive.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>At this stage, satellite TV is the most powerful medium of communication in Eritrea, as there is limited internet access due to government policy to control information flow. For this very reason, ATV service is viewed as irreplaceable by the Eritrean people as they look up to it as the champion of persistence and freedom.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>In the fast-evolving political climate in Eritrea and the region at large, a media outlet such as ATV needs to be properly funded to become sustainable. Momentarily, its sustainability is what enables it to continue being an alternative voice and would provide the foundation of independent media in the aftermath of the dictatorial rule.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The £100,000 fund generated from this funding page will be invested in covering the core expense of ATV’s media operation, i.e. the monthly satellite TV transmission costs.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Kindly, support ATV and continue to give voice to the voiceless.
</div>

</div>
<div>In the meantime, on behalf of the stifled Eritrean population which boosts our morale by tirelessly giving us feedback, we would like to thank you in advance, for whatever donations you might be willing to make.
