John,

In the darkness of night, Israel bombed a refugee camp right outside a hospital in central Gaza. Families fleeing violence and seeking refuge were instead met with deadly airstrikes. Several people were burnt alive, trapped in tents engulfed in flames.

This is only possible because banks like BNP Paribas, Crédit Agricole, Deutsche Bank and Barclays are pouring billions into the weapons industry, fuelling Israel’s war machine. So we’re going after ALL of them.

We have everything lined up, but to take on these big banks – and win – our team of campaigners need your help. If 7500 of you chip in what you can now, they can jump into action, hiring the researchers we need to comb through reams of financial data and the legal experts who’ll be crucial in our fight to shut down Israel’s war machine.

John, Israel can’t keep its war machine going without weapons. THIS is how we can help put an end to all the violence and death. Can you chip in?

Together, we just forced French insurance giant Axa to divest from Israeli banks after non-stop campaigning! So we know we can do it again, toppling each company until we take down the entire war machine. 

From BNP Paribas, the largest European financier of weapons deals with Israel, to Chevron for its shady energy deals that are fueling the occupation, we’ve fine-tuned our plan to go after key companies helping Israel’s war. We’re even going after Danish logistics company Maersk for transporting hundreds of millions worth of weapons. 

This is exactly what the Ekō community is made for – and with everyone chipping in what they can, our brilliant team could unleash sophisticated tactics on each of these corporate giants, including hard-hitting research, legal analyses and possibly even legal cases, and public pressure campaigns to put this front and center in the media.

It’s utterly shameful – very few governments have taken meaningful action to stop the Israeli government’s atrocities. But a few companies have, and that’s because consumer activism does work.

Now we’re ready to 10x our divestment work and stop this violence. Can you chip in to take down Israel’s war machine?

Thanks for all that you do,
Rewan and the Ekō team
