WRITE FOR RIGHTS is an annual international campaign to speak up for those who are suffering injustice and human rights abuse. The Urgent Action Network is a group of Amnesty International supporters who write letters throughout the year on behalf of human rights abuse. These letters are sent to world leaders and by helping to shine an international spotlight on the people and situations have consistently achieved results. Amnesty International provides Write for Rights organizers with sample letters for every case. Participants can simply spend a few minutes signing copies of prepared letters, bring a laptop and compose and send short emails, or type or handwrite their own letters based on the information provided. Nothing is required to participate except a desire to have an impact toward protecting human rights.

Write for Rights will meet in Wooster at Sure House Coffee Roasting Company, 151 S. Market St. on Saturday, Dec. 3 from 10 a.m. to noon. Everyone is invited to join in the world’s biggest human rights event. For more information visit www.write.amnestyusa.org/about/.
