As we prepare for further action in the Vanguard S.O.S. campaign, we invite you to join us online for several sessions of spiritual preparation.  We do this work in order to ground ourselves in our purpose. We do this work to come further, as Quakers say, “under the weight” of climate change and the consequences of Vanguard’s hedging and hesitation to take action for climate. And, we do this work to connect with each other and prepare ourselves for what’s ahead. We will draw on some Quaker practices of quiet inner listening and individual and group discernment, as well as explore other individual and collective practices including mindfulness, body movements, and more.  People of all spiritual persuasions are welcome.  Each session will include time in the large group and in small groups.

Are you planning to participate in our Vanguard, It’s Time for an Intervention action on April 19th, or thinking about it but want to know more? Join us on Zoom for a play-by-play of what to expect the day of the action, with plenty of time for questions! If you’re considering playing a role on the 19th, this will be a particularly good opportunity to get clear about the plan before we run through it together at our training the weekend before the action (you can RSVP for the training here!).

This meeting will be held via an online platform. RSVP below for the link to join the meeting.

Join us to get trained up for the April 19th Vanguard, It's Time for an Intervention action! At this training we'll try on our action roles, run through possible scenarios, and do some final skills practice and trust-building for the big day! We particularly recommend that those playing action roles attend the training, but all are welcome who wish to get a better sense of what to expect and get ready for this exciting action.

The training location will be announced soon and will be accessible by public transit.

Join us for our final spiritual preparation session before our April 19 action!

Vanguard - headquartered just outside Philly in Malvern, PA -  continues to be one of the world’s largest investors in fossil fuels. For the last year, the Vanguard SOS campaign has called on Vanguard leadership to do what’s necessary: to end their complicity in the climate crisis and leverage their multi-trillion-dollar influence to invest in a sustainable, just world. But rather than listening, Vanguard has caved to right-wing pressure and dangerously backslid on existing climate commitments.

We can’t allow Vanguard to continue financing the destruction of our climate and communities. We feel the urgency of the climate crisis, and we want Vanguard to feel that urgency and take meaningful climate action. That’s why we’re planning the biggest escalation of the campaign so far on April 19th. We hope you’ll join us!

To prepare for this action, we'll be holding an action run-through and Q&A on Saturday, April 1st and an all-day training on Saturday, April 15th. Anyone planning to hold a role at this action should attend the April 15th training. Participants not playing roles are encouraged to attend as well!
