When it was announced that there would be a *new* GivingTuesday, we honestly weren’t sure how our community would respond. But you have astounded us, as you always do.

Thanks to you, we were able to successfully launch the COVID-19 Sexual Abuse Response Fund. This fund, which supports our victim services programs during this crucial time, is a lifeline for the children and other survivors who are currently sheltering-in-place with abusers. Thanks to the Human Investment Foundation for putting up a match offer for #GivingTuesdayNow. And, thanks to you, RAINN will be there when these survivors are able to ask for help. And your generous contribution will help them on their path to healing.

On behalf of all those we serve...thank you.

In this time of physical isolation, it can be easy to lose sight of the things that connect us. But I speak for all of us at RAINN when I say that we feel connected to and inspired by all of you. Your support in this time is amazing—we could not do this work without you.

Thank you.

-Team RAINN

P.S. There is still time to have your gift matched by The Human Investment Foundation for the month of May!
