Get Emory University to match every donation their students make towards justice

The Issue

I am a student at Emory University and I am angered by the injustice going on in my local community and the United States as a result of police brutality and institutionalized racism against the African-American community. I have tried to be as active as I can in fighting these injustices through donations to associations like Black Lives Matter and NAACP Legal and Defense Fund. I am petitioning for Emory University to match every dollar that their students donate to organizations like these. If students knew they had the financial support of their educational institution, I know they would be more inclined to donate and advocate for real, concrete change.
