Material Support to Salvadoran Social Movement
As part of our solidarity with El Salvador's organized social movement, CISPES raises money to send directly to Salvadoran grassroots groups on the frontlines of the struggle.
In El Salvador, the popular social movement and the FMLN are organizing and mobilizing to defend the progress they have made from ongoing and intensifying attacks. As the second FMLN administration continues to push forward its agenda of investing in social programs for the country’s impoverished majority and building strong, transparent, and participatory institutions, El Salvador’s economic elite, extreme right wing, and US intervention threaten to reverse the transformations. The country’s popular social movement will be critical in responding to local destabilization tactics like economic boycotts, media disinformation campaigns, and institutional attacks from the right wing judiciary as well as defending human rights, the environment, and national sovereignty in the face of the US’s aggressive regional agenda of militarization and corporate plunder. Join CISPES in supporting women-led, worker-led, youth-led, and community-based organizing!

"I am a CISPES supporter because continuing to fight for social justice and a more people-centered country means continuing the dream and sacrifice of thousands of my fellow Salvadorans who died for that vision.” - Padre Carlos, New York City
