Year-end appeal

For I was hungry and you gave me food; I was thirsty and you gave me drink; I was a stranger and you made me welcome; naked and you clothed me, sick and you visited me, in prison and you came to see me.—Matthew 25:35–36

Dear friends of No More Deaths,

Donate to No More DeathsTHANK YOU to all of you who contribute to the work of No More Deaths all year long. Generous partners like you know that welcoming the stranger and migrant and providing hospitality isn’t just a seasonal practice, it’s ongoing. It is deeply embedded in the ancient traditions of the First Nations peoples as well as in all the great religions of the world.

For more than ten years now, No More Deaths has welcomed the stranger in our midst. These “works of mercy” happen every day:
