What does it mean to be an Amnesty member?
Being a member of Amnesty International means different things to different people.
For some, it means speaking out, taking action and effecting change. Amnesty members often choose to get more involved by writing letters, joining in human rights campaigns, connecting with other Amnesty members, or spreading the word about Amnesty at their school and workplace.
For others, it means supporting Amnesty through financial contributions such as our monthly giving program, one-time donations, and/or fundraising for Amnesty. This support is critical to ensuring that Amnesty has funds for year-round campaigning, and allows Amnesty to respond quickly to situations of grave human rights violations.
While we do not have a specific membership fee, all members are asked to make some annual financial contribution to Amnesty. For membership options for those with a low income call 1-800-Amnesty. To find out the different ways you can give to Amnesty, visit the Support Amnesty section of this web-site or contact member services at 1-800-AMNESTY (1-800-266-3789).
However you chose to get involved with Amnesty, you will join hands with millions of people around the world working to ensure the promotion and protection of human rights everywhere.
