For a truly worthwhile Christmas present: Make a donation to the charity Workers’ Fund and it will send a glossy, full colour Christmas card with an Iranian motif to the person in whose name you made the donation (minimum donation £10).

WFI was set up in December 2005 and aims to reduce and relieve poverty amongst Iranian workers (both employed and unemployed) who are victims of the crippling effects of sanctions and the neoliberal economic policies of the Iranian regime, including privatisations. At the centre of WFI’s activities is the need to rebuild international working class solidarity, directly with the workers of Iran - in contrast to the funds set up by the US administration to support those Iranian NGOs who follow US policy in the region. WFI is strictly independent of any political organisation/group inside or outside Iran and its members represent an array of different tendencies within the Iranian Labour movement. The campaign is supported by an impressive list of sponsors, including Cliff Slaughter, Professor Istvan Meszaros, Terry Brotherstone, Liz Leicester, Hillary Horrocks, Simon Pirani, Christine Cooper, Anton Mactonian and others.

You can donate here:

or send cheques (made payable to Workers Fund Iran) to Nationwide Treasurer Trust Fund, 290 Byres Road, Lanarkshire G12 8AW UK.

Make sure to tell WFI the person's name and address that you want the card sent to. Of course, you can also give this as a Christmas present to yourself! Email details to workersfund@gmail.com
