Join the Crucial Fight For Our Existence – Join the Macedonian Human Rights Fund Today

Fight Against the Cultural Genocide of Macedonia and Macedonians

Join us now - donate here

The attacks attempting to eradicate us are relentless. The fight for our very existence – as who we have always been, Macedonians – has not been at such a crucial level in recent memory.

The forced Macedonia name change and negotiations with Bulgaria are giving away our name, identity, culture, history, and language. Human rights violations against Macedonians throughout all of partitioned Macedonia and the world have exploded.

Macedonian Human Rights Movement International has been leading the fight in defence of Macedonia and Macedonians since our inception 40 years ago. Join us now.

100% of your donation goes directly to vital human rights projects. See a list of our initiatives below. And unlike the vast majority, if not all other non-profits and charities, all administrative costs are covered by our board members – so all of your donation goes exactly where it’s needed.

Become a member of the Macedonian Human Rights Fund. Donate $10/month, a dollar-a-day, any of our sponsorship levels below, or any amount you can afford and know that you will be making a difference in the fight for our Macedonian cause.

Whether you’re donating as an individual, organization, or through your business, you can choose to have your donation recognized (or remain anonymous) and be featured in our marketing, promotion, media releases, events, publications, website, social media, print mailouts, and e-mail campaigns. Businesses will receive a receipt in the full amount of their sponsorship for deductible expense purposes.

Join the fight for our existence. Our name is Macedonia. We are Macedonian. Our time is now.

  • Funding human rights offices and cultural centres for Macedonians in Aegean and Pirin Macedonia, Mala Prespa, Golo Brdo, Gora, and Jabuka resulting in a tremendous rise in grassroots advocacy and demand for human rights;
  • Funding and opening Macedonian-language schools throughout all of partitioned Macedonia;
  • Successfully defending lawsuits filed by Greek and Bulgarian nationalists against Macedonian organizations including the Centre for the Macedonian Language in Aegean Macedonia and the Macedonian Alliance for European Integration in Albania and the launching of lawsuits against those who attack Macedonians;
  • Over a dozen victories in the European Court of Human Rights for the recognition and granting of rights for oppressed Macedonians in Greece and Bulgaria;
  • Lawsuits in multiple international courts fighting for the return of Macedonia's name, granting and guaranteeing human rights for Macedonians, and protection and freedom for Macedonian human rights activists and political prisoners;
  • Funding Macedonian cultural festivals, commemorations, protests, and rallies throughout all of partitioned Macedonia in order to advocate for our Macedonian name, identity and human rights;
  • Lobbying and meeting with international heads of state, foreign ministers, diplomats, political parties, and human rights organizations securing a tremendous rise in support for Macedonians;
  • Attendance and participation at United Nations, European, and other international human rights conferences dramatically increasing exposure for the plight of Macedonians;
  • Funding successful election campaigns for Macedonians in Albania, Greece, Bulgaria, Serbia and Kosovo in order to better advocate for Macedonian human rights, including the first Macedonian elected to Albanian parliament;
  • Support for Macedonian human rights activists and political prisoners who have been incarcerated for advocating for Macedonian rights;
  • Funding of media including television and radio stations and programs, newspapers, books, and publications for Macedonians throughout partitioned Macedonia, whose access to media is denied solely because they are Macedonian.
