We are gravely concerned about the people of Ukraine.

Russian attacks on several Ukrainian cities mark the beginning of invasion.

On this day we celebrate the life and legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

A disruptor, a martyr, and a hero. May we use this day to reflect on his work, and may we use his words to reflect on our own impact on the world around us.

The Taliban promised to respect press freedoms, but is now targeting media workers to keep the story contained. Without journalists to bear witness, it's impossible to know what is truly happening. We are committed to protecting the safety of journalists and civilians alike

Eight years ago today, the Assad regime launched a chemical attack in Ghouta, Syria. The death toll could be as high as 1,700 people, most of whom were civilians. MCMF strives to aid victims of war, like the Syrian people who have lived through a decade of war.
