Every day, low-income communities and communities of color bear the brunt of pollution and the negative consequences of climate change. WE ACT for Environmental Justice empowers communities burdened by environmental injustices to fight for strong and environmental health and protection policies. This spring, you can deepen your commitment to this fight by becoming a WE ACT Environmental Justice Sustainer. For the month of May, a generous supporter is matching all new sustainer gifts. If you become a sustainer today, you’ll double your impact.
Environmental Justice Sustainers give monthly to sustain WE ACT’s work year-round. With an average gift of just $23, our sustainers support our community organizing work, help push our legislation over the finish line, and ensure we meet our long-term climate goals. With just $50, $25, or even $10 a month, you can make a lasting impact on WE ACT’s efforts in 2024 - and have your gift matched, doubling its impact.
“I went to Barnard College and studied environmental science. During my time as a student, I learned about a variety of local organizations addressing environmental injustices and admired the incredible pioneering work of WE ACT. As a fifth grade environmental science teacher for a New York City charter school, I even taught my students about Peggy Shepard and WE ACT. Although I've since moved back West (where I grew up), I decided to continue being a sustaining donor for WE ACT because it's easier for me to contribute monthly than remember to donate once a year."
