Celebrate our 5th birthday with us!🎂
For five years, S.T.O.P.’s staff has fought against the ever-growing surveillance state and to protect civil rights, but our work is only possible with your contributions.
Every bill we write, every workshop we hold, and every lawsuit we file against the NYPD are only possible with support from donors like you.
Whether it’s donating $400 to cover the cost of filing a new civil rights suit, donating $4,000 to cover the cost of a research report, or even just $4, your tax-deductible generosity will not just amplify our work, it will help defend the very fabric of our democracy.
Please note if you are donating by card: We strongly suggest turning off third party blockers to avoid errors with processing your donation.
