Amnesty International is a religious group. Amnesty International is not a religious group and has no connections to any religions or religious groups. Amnesty International is , however, open to people of all religions, genders, races, ethnic backgrounds, sexual orientations, disabilities, and political persuasions. How We Do It Since 1961, Amnesty International has adopted over 42,000 prisoners, and helped free 38,000 women, men, and children from prison and torture with simple, yet effective letters. The SMSU chapter prefers to have good times in keeping with our work so as to keep from falling into that dismal abyss of cynicism and worldly frustration looming before us . . .
Postage is provided by group funds.
We collect signatures on petitions, distribute information, hold discussion groups, and raise money by selling T-shirts and other merchandise. In all seriousness, though, we hope you'll join us. Working with Amnesty International makes you part of the solution to the problems of this unjust world. Write a letter, save a life.
