Send Letters of support to people in Gaza on the US Boat

[Susan Landau]

To Gaza With Love letters campaign

The U.S. Boat to Gaza, The Audacity of Hope, is committed to breaking the siege of Gaza. Around the U.S. thousands of people have been contributing. Not everyone can sail on the boat but you all are just as much a part of the campaign as the passengers and the crew.

We are happy to announce the launch of an exciting new effort

– To Gaza with Love –

which will collect letters from people in the U.S. for the people of Gaza. Your letters will be precious cargo on the ship.

Already mothers, farmers, teachers, students, cab drivers and artists are writing. Whether it’s a letter from a U.S. mother to a mother in Gaza, a child in the U.S. to a child in Gaza, or letters from students, teachers, business people, religious leaders to their counterparts in Gaza, the siege cannot withstand the power of our words to break through.

WE WILL NOT BE SILENT

WE WILL BE HEARD

Please write your letter today.

To participate in To Gaza with Love:

• Write a letter and then encourage your friends and family to join this collective action of friendship and solidarity with the Palestinian people.
• Organize letter-writing parties in your home, school or place of worship.
• You can simply write a few lines on a postcard, a few paragraphs on paper or a card, or film a short video clip.
• Be creative. The only restriction is we need to be able to get it to Gaza. If you do a sculpture or a wall mural, you will have to send us a picture, not the real thing.

You can send your letters to us via email at:

letter...@gmail.com

We are also collecting hard copies of your messages. Those can be mailed to us at:

How We Will Share These Letters?

When The Audacity of Hope sails, your letters and messages will be part of its cargo. Meanwhile, we will send some of these messages right away and make them public through Twitter, Facebook, on our website, and in statements to the press. We’d also like to archive them and create an exhibit or book.
