Mother crying and holding her dead child in her arms after an Israeli airstrike

John,

More than 17,000 children, and 214 newborn infants, are among the tens of thousands dead from Israel's attacks on Gaza. Many are still missing under the rubble.

This is possible because of companies like Maersk, which transport millions of dollars' worth of weapons to Israel that are being used to massacre Palestinians – even after a supposed ceasefire.

But the Danish shipping giant is under growing pressure to cut ties with this blood-soaked trade, and now we have a chance to make sure its CEO and board take notice.

Maersk’s annual shareholder meeting is in days. Our team has been working flat out, securing the research, legal advice and partners needed to file a shareholder resolution. Now it’s absolutely critical that we launch a massive advocacy push so shareholders know about the resolution  and the potential legal and financial risks Maersk is exposed to if it doesn't stop.

If enough of us chip in, our team can unleash bold tactics that target shareholders and grab headlines – so our message can't be missed. Together we can stop the flow of arms and dismantle the machinery of genocide, step by step. So let's make this one of the most impactful campaigns Maersk has ever faced. Can you help?

The death toll in Gaza is rising. Almost 62,000 have been killed with a staggering number of them women and children.

Despite a call for an arms embargo by the highest court in the world, Maersk has carried on quietly shipping weapons that are fueling Israel’s attacks in Gaza. But without companies like Maersk, Israel’s genocidal machine would grind to a halt. 

That's where we come in.

Maersk claims to be a human rights leader and boasts about adhering to international law. So we know it cares about its public image as well as its bottom line. And because Maersk is a Danish company, we also have EU regulations working in our favor. 

Now if we can build support from enough shareholders for our resolution ahead of the AGM, we have a real chance of showing the CEO and board that it's much too costly to stay in this deadly trade – and they'll be forced to act.

Our campaigners, legal experts, and researchers are all on standby. We've worked diligently to get a shareholder resolution filed, and the team has been strategizing for weeks on the next steps...With enough donations, we can hit go and work to make this the most impactful shareholder advocacy campaign Maersk has ever faced. We'll use every tactic we can: from shareholder outreach to targeted ads to planned media stunts at the HQ. This AGM will be our moment to make an unforgettable impression on the company's leadership.

John, this is how we win, and how we can dismantle the machinery of genocide, for good. Every second counts in this fightcan you help?

Months ago, Ekō successfully forced French insurance giant AXA to stop funding Israel’s illegal settlements — but only because we moved quickly and decisively. Now we can do it again. Are you in, John?

Your donation will help power Ekō and our campaigns worldwide fighting for people and the planet.

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