This Christmas, as you choose meaningful gifts for family members, friends, colleagues, clients, teachers and others in your life, consider giving the Gift of Freedom. Your gift can bring security, hope and dignity to victims of oppressive violence, while introducing others to the work of IJM. Instead of another sweater or box of chocolates, your gift can provide loving aftercare for victims of sexual violence, undercover investigation into slavery, or legal representation in court for a victim of illegal detention. IJM’s new 2007 Holiday Gift Catalog features the following items:

» A Half-Day/ A Day of Investigative Work — $25/ $50
» A Day of Advocacy — $70
» A Day of Aftercare — $40
» A Day of Aftercare and a Day of Investigative Work — $90
» A Day/A Week of Operations for an IJM Partner in Latin America — $170/ $850
» A Day/ A Week of Operations for an IJM Overseas Office — $1,700/ $8,500

You can choose to have a beautiful card explaining the gift sent directly to the recipient, or sent to you, so you can present it yourself or leave it under the tree. This year, choose to give a gift that will make a lasting difference – give a Gift of Freedom.
