Volunteer: Help Fundraise for Camera Equipment for Journalist Job at Volunteerma

Help Fundraise for Camera Equipment for Journalist

Being a journalist in Syria is already extremely dangerous, as "A camera is more dangerous to have than a gun". On top of that, most fundraising sites respond to the sanctions against the Assad regime by blocking the entire country of Syria, which then also blocks aid to dissidents and journalists. We have spoken to the US Treasury Dept and validated that aid to journalists who are self-vetted against their list, is 100% legal. And it is very important. This includes photo documentation of the White Helmets, the rescue organization that saves civilians after bombings.

Documenting the war crimes and attacks on civilians is critical and very, very few individuals are taking the risk to do it. The least we can do is help them raise funds for new equipment.

Mission Statement

We created civ.works as a platform for all of us to work together to overcome the corrupting influence of money in politics. Together we can address bad policy, legislation and to hold all of our elected officials accountable. For democracy to work - our government must represent "We the People". civ.works: Together. We can.

Description

civ.works is a privacy protected social platform built for meaningful civic action. The concept of civ.works is to finally provide a societal machine to stand up against something created nearly 50 years ago - and begin the process of empowering citizens again. We are building a platform together - against an incredibly mature and well-funded machine. Your volunteer efforts will be helping us collectively build something powerful and important.
