Ayaan Hirsi Ali, former
Dutch parliamentarian and outspoken defender of women’s rights in Islamic
societies, is at risk from a variety of extremist threats in both Europe and
the United States. She has needed constant security protection since her life
was first threatened in 2002. Up until October 1, 2007, this protection was
provided by the Dutch government.
Now a permanent resident of the United States,
Ms. Hirsi Ali must raise her own funds to oversee the financing of her costly—but
necessary—protection. In response to the numerous private citizens who have
expressed interest in helping Ms. Hirsi Ali fund her security detail, the Ayaan
Hirsi Ali Security Trust has been established.
The preferred and most immediate way to assist Ms. Hirsi
Ali in the financing of her private security protection is through the Ayaan
Hirsi Ali Security Trust. This private trust fund accepts non-tax deductible
donations from within the United States and internationally, and is entirely
dedicated to financing Ms. Hirsi Ali’s security.
Donations to the trust may be wired directly to:
