Happy Hanukkah! This season, we invite you to join us in spreading that light further. Our Holiday Fundraiser is underway, and your generosity will help us continue our Humanitarian Storytelling in 2026, giving voice to those too often unheard.

Continuing today with words from university students and how the MotM community touched them. Next up, Catherine, another student from UMass-Boston:

Create your own fundraiser for Migrants of the Mediterranean to share with your friends and followers – it’s a new feature to help make our annual fundraiser an even bigger success in 2025!

Behind every migration story is a human life, we must act now to uphold dignity and our shared humanity. This year on #GivingTuesday we need your help to make a difference in the lives of others. We are an organization dedicated to Humanitarian Storytelling.

Tomorrow is #GivingTuesday. A day dedicated to giving to causes that matter most to you. We need your help to make a difference in the lives of others. Your donation goes a long way in allowing us to tell the stories of the most impoverished and vulnerable people in the world—and any amount matters!

Next week is Giving Tuesday, the official global day of giving, and we’ll be counting on you to make our cause stand out!

Happy Thanksgiving from Migrants of the Mediterranean!

This time of year, we always enjoy reflecting on what your support means to us. You are all the foundation of what we do, and your continued support ensures a bright future for our organization.

Meet Cokky.
