Transferred but still not free: Support them on Human Rights Day

Donate Today to Support Guantanamo Survivors

Dear WAT Community,

Since Guantanamo Survivors Fund was established in April, we have used or committed almost all the money we have raised, $30,000, to meet the urgent needs of seven former Guantanamo prisoners, such as rent, medical care, and transportation for work. With your help, we hope to raise an additional $15,000 by the end of 2022, which will be matched dollar-for-dollar by a generous donor! $30,000 in total will enable us to provide help to up to ten more Guantanamo survivors and their families.

And here's an Invitation to Tea for the Tea Project's book launch:
The Tea Project Archive and Recipe Book
International Human Rights Day, Sat Dec 10, 2022 from 11 - 1 Central Time
Register here to attend, and see their art project exploring reparations for Guantanamo survivors here.

In solidarity with the men,

Who we are

Witness Against Torture was formed in 2005 when 25 Americans went to Guantánamo Bay and attempted to visit the detention facility. They began to organize more broadly to shut down Guantánamo, end indefinite detention and torture and call out Islamophobia. During our demonstrations, we lift up the words of the detainees themselves, bringing them to public spaces they are not permitted to access. Witness Against Torture will carry on in its activities until torture is decisively ended, its victims are fully acknowledged, Guantánamo and similar facilities are closed, and those who ordered and committed torture are held to account.
