Instead of gifts, we are asking our friends and family to join us in supporting an organization that means a great deal to us: the American Civil Liberties Union of Northern California. The ACLU’s work to defend civil liberties ensures that all Americans can express themselves freely, advocate for their rights, and challenge injustice—values that we believe are crucial, especially in today’s political climate. We feel safer knowing organizations like the ACLU fight to protect dissent, equality, and fundamental freedoms. In celebration of us, we hope you’ll consider donating to help sustain their important work. Your support means the world to us!
