On October 7, 2010, the Afghanistan War will enter its 10th year. We’re fighting to stop this brutal, futile conflict, but we need your help. Maintaining a network of contacts on the ground in Afghanistan and an ongoing campaign here in the U.S. is expensive.

3 Days Left: All gifts to Truthout now matched!
From now until the end of the year, all donations to Truthout will be matched dollar for dollar! Thanks to a generous supporter, your one-time gift today will be matched immediately. As well, your monthly donation will be matched for the whole first year, doubling your impact.
We have just 3 days left to reach our goals: raising $55,000 in one-time gifts and adding 870 new monthly donors.
This matching gift comes at a critical time. Trump has made it no secret that he is planning a demolition-style attack on both specific communities and democracy as a whole, beginning on his first day in office.
Help us prepare for Trump’s Day One, and have your donation matched today!
