Time has run out for “solutions” that tinker at the edges of the climate crisis. The world’s most powerful companies must be forced to cut off fossil fuels. That’s why this summer, we’re organizing thousands of people into 3-5 disruptive civil disobedience actions every week for at least 3 months. Our plan is simple: organize a sustained direct action campaign until big banks, insurers and investors stop funding the coal, oil and gas companies polluting our communities and killing our planet.

From the civil rights movement to ACT UP’s fight to save millions of lives during the AIDS pandemic, non-violent direct action is how everyday people can fight back against the most powerful business and government leaders. That’s why we’re going hard all summer long. Week after week. Month after month. We’re fighting for our lives and we won’t back down.

But while history shows that nonviolent civil disobedience is one of the most effective tools to bring about change, big institutional funders are nervous about funding this campaign. So, we need your help.

** We need your financial support. **
*We are organizing sustained, disruptive action the entire summer. *

Since February, we’ve onboarded 6,000+ people who are committed to taking direct action against fossil finance. 100+ organizations have endorsed the effort. And we'll need outreach materials, texting and email tools, and meeting spaces to keep growing these numbers

Your donation will support organizing and recruitment, action planning, legal support, trainings, frontline travel, and more. For example:

• $35 can allow us to text 1,000 supporters about upcoming actions
• $75 can provide one activist taking direct action pro-bono legal support
• $120 can fund a person’s participation in a half-day nonviolent direct action training
• $333 can pay for a day for a convergence space, where we can make art, hold meetings, and break bread together
• $1,000 can help cover the travel, lodging, and food for a frontline fighter joining actions in NYC
• $2,000 can pay for one month of an organizing fellow
