Iranian Women's Rights Movement Fund

About

The death of 22-year-old Mahsa Amini on September 16, 2022 after being arrested by "morality police" for allegedly violating the country's dress code sparked anti-government protests across Iran. Iranian authorities have since exhibited excessive force towards protestors, leading to an ever-growing count of resultant injuries and deaths of Iranian citizens. Your donation to this fund will help support the work of the following organizations, all of whom are making efforts to support the rights of Iranian women by investigating and reporting on human rights violations, promoting global awareness of the women's rights movement in Iran, and uplifting the voices of Iranian women and girls who are fighting for their basic human rights.
