This is Kathryn from Change.org.I love seeing people use Change.org to fight for issues like women’s rights and education.

One of my favorite petitions was started by Malala Yousafzai, which set out to help 62 million girls around the world get the education they deserve.

Through supporters like you, Malala’s petition received over one million signatures and achieved victory when the Global Partnership for Education said they would fund 12 years of education for girls globally.

But without supporters like you, Malala’s petition would not have won.

So I just wanted to check back in and ask if you still want to hear from us about campaigns like hers and others – if you do, please click here.

If you don’t, you can unsubscribe here.

Thank you for being part of Change.org!

Kathryn Semogas

Keep hearing from Change.org

california — Never in modern presidential politics has a major candidate made false statements as routinely as Trump has.
— Times editorial: Clinton would make a sober, smart and pragmatic president. Trump would be a catastrophe.
— Trump has some Latinos so unnerved, they’re turning to the supernatural for help.
— Mary McNamara: TV news needs to pull itself together for the presidential debates.
— Watch the debate with us, online or in person in downtown L.A.

The Differences Between Tulsa and Charlotte Are Transparent
Two fatal police shootings of black men. Two different reactions. The biggest factor in why Charlotte, N.C., turned violent while protests in Tulsa, Okla., remained peaceful may have been how transparent each city’s police department was with the public. While authorities in Tulsa acted quickly in releasing video and ultimately filing charges, Charlotte officials made video public only after days of pressure.
