Dear Friends,

Please consider donating towards El Salvador Oral Histories Project. This project seeks to collect stories of Salvadorians living in Massachusetts about the war in El Salvador in the 1980s. Its aim is to recuperate historical memories of violence—-and hope, amidst that violence-—that can serve as a tool for the promotion of social democracy and the defense of human rights. In the vein of "Nunca Más!" or never again, oral histories have traditionally served as a vehicle towards processes of truth and reconciliation. For more information see:

All proceeds will go towards hiring a professional designer for a web site where these testimonies will collected.

peace,

Sofia Jarrin
