Write a Letter, Change a Life

By Faculty and Staff, Students

Monday, Nov. 27, and Wednesday, Nov. 29, 4:30 ‐ 6:30 p.m. and Tuesday, Nov. 28 and Thursday, Nov. 30, 12:30 – 2 p.m., drop by the KC to join the Human Rights Lab in taking part in Amnesty International’s annual Write for Rights campaign, the largest human rights event in the world!

Write letters for those whose rights have been violated, showing solidarity and applying pressure on decision makers. These letters are proven to make a difference in people’s lives. U.S. citizen Rocky Myers, who’s on death row despite numerous problems in his case, is one of eleven people highlighted in this year’s campaign.

Stationary, sample letters, and case information will be provided at the table in the KC. Write there or take materials to go. For each letter you write you may earn volunteer hours and be entered into a raffle for prizes. Plus there will be snacks!

If you are off campus or unable to make it to the KC, email kla12@albion.edu to learn how to participate remotely or schedule a separate time to pick up materials.
