Help Intact America place an ad in the Washington Post

Before our team leaves for major health conferences in Boston and Washington, DC, tomorrow morning, we need your help to take advantage of a last-minute opportunity.

We have the chance to place a major advertisement in The Washington Post – but we need to raise $2,000 more by midnight to make it happen.

Will you make a gift today to help put our message in front of 1.5 million Washington Post readers?

Thanks to supporters like you, we've flooded the American Academy of Family Physicians (AAFP) and the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) with personal letters of opposition – and we'll have a presence at their conferences they won't be able to ignore.

Yet as these two top medical groups in the U.S. consider recommending all baby boys be circumcised, we're concerned it might not be enough.

Our advertisement in The Washington Post would reach a national audience – and the AAFP and AAP – with an open letter making the case that circumcision is unnecessary, harmful and ethically wrong.

We need to do everything we can before the opportunity passes.

Make a gift by midnight tonight – and help us place our open letter in The Washington Post.

Thank you for everything you are doing to protect baby boys.

Sincerely,

Georganne Chapin

Does anyone know if they were able to raise the amount?

I'm not sure, but a donation would still help with their work, and there are other things people can do, too. Here is their Take Action page:

where you can sign a petition. You can also write a letter to the editor, buy advocacy products, or join them on Facebook or Twitter.
