For Every New Online Activist Who Signs Up in June, $1 Will Be Donated to
Amnesty

Take an easy, simple step to promote human rights! This year marks the 30th
Anniversary of Amnesty International's Urgent Action Network (UAN), the
global network of concerned citizens who are available 24 hours a day to
intercede on behalf of prisoners of conscience everywhere. Tens of
thousands of concerned folks have already made an enormous difference in
our global fight for human rights - responses to e-mail alerts and Urgent
Actions have resulted in hundreds of thousands of faxes, letters and emails
and the ultimate release of more than 40,000 prisoners of conscience
worldwide.

To mark this important anniversary, an anonymous donor has agreed to donate
one dollar to Amnesty International for every new sign-up to Amnesty USA's
online Human Rights Action Center (HRAC) - up to $100,000! Help us recruit
100,000 new participants in the HRAC! Launched in 2000, the HRAC grew out
of our 30 years of experience with the UAN, utilizing new technologies to
mobilize more people, more quickly via email and the Web.

Participation in the Human Rights Action Center is free. Sign up today -
and forward this message on to your friends and encourage them to sign up
too!
