MyPostcard, All Out, and NC SOS Crisis Group are starting the year with an action of solidarity that you can easily join! Salekh and Ismail are two young LGBT+ people who have been forcibly detained and tortured in Chechnya, Russia. They have been sentenced to seven and six years respectively in separate penal colonies on trumped-up charges related to their political activity online, but in reality they were targeted for being LGBT+. Send one of 5,000 postcards – provided free of charge by MyPostcard – to show Salekh and Ismail that they are not alone.

This is how it works:

1. Download the MyPostcard app for free (if you're on your computer right now, go straight to selecting your postcard below on this page).

2. Select All Out - Postcard

3. You’ll find a message in Russian already on the postcard, but you can change it with your personal message in your own language. Here is an example for you in English:

Dear Salekh and Ismail,

Even though I may be far away, when I learned about what you’ve been through, I was extremely moved by your story of courage and survival.

I want you to know that you are not alone and that there are many people around the world who care about you.

I’m sending you all my love and solidarity, hoping to warm up your heart with a bit of hope and joy. A warm hug.

4. Add your first name

5. Send your postcard for FREE
