Help PBI and double your money!

An anonymous trust has offered PBI a grant of up to £20,000 to support our work protecting threatened human rights defenders around the world – but only if we can match this amount through donations from other sources.

We have already raised £8,500, so there is just £11,500 left to go - and we must raise it by 22 November.

Please make a donation to help us reach our target. Remember, for every pound you give, PBI will receive twice that amount!
