Great news! Some of our donors have gotten together and come up with a $34,000 grant – the Antiwar.com Challenge Grant. But there's a catch: this money is conditional on us raising matching funds.

This means we have to raise that amount from you, in smaller donations: then and only then will we get the full amount.

We are so grateful to our donors for this wonderful gift: but remember – we don't get it until we can match it. And that's up to you.

With war clouds looming on the horizon, and the War Party agitating for intervention from Syria to Ukraine, this web site is needed now more than ever. But we can't continue without your support. We need your donation now – because the threat of another major war is very real, and the War Party never rests.

Please make your tax-deductible contribution today.
