The NYC Comptroller has formally recommended to 3 public pension boards that they search for a replacement to BlackRock to manage their $42 billion in pensioners' savings because BlackRock is failing on investing for a safe and healthy future. We love to see it!

Now's sure as good of a time as any to deepen or refresh our skills in spiritually-grounded nonviolent direct action! So, please join us on Sun 11/23 for our in person, interactive workshop at @friendsctr.bsky.social: www.eventbrite.com/e/building-s...

We're celebrating 15 years of EQAT and, as part of our community, you're invited! If you're near Philly, you can celebrate with us in person this Sun 11/9: secure.everyaction.com/ZUsgcSXWaUmA... And wherever you are, we invite you to donate: secure.everyaction.com/YtslO4jPaEmF... 🎂🎈🎉

📰 EQAT volunteer, Richard, writes in the @buckscountybeacon.com about his experience going to Vanguard to ask CEO Salim Ramji to meet with the #VanguardSOS campaign and what happened next. Read all about it: buckscountybeacon.com/2025/10/why-...

Yesterday, Vanguard had a shareholder meeting where it asked for permission to make 2 of its funds less diversified. Here's how we responded: eqat.org/press-releas...

Why’d we go to the fundraising gala of the Children’s Hospital of Pennsylvania? It wasn’t an action against the gala; we went to call out Greg Davis, President & CIO of Vanguard, who is also chairman of the board of CHOP. #VanguardSOS

Through song, signs, speeches and more - @eqat.bsky.social confronted Vanguard once again at its’ headquarters in Malvern PA on September 10, 2025. #EQAT #FossilFuelFreeInvestment #IndigenousRightsPolicy www.youtube.com/watch?v=NLYT...

Thanks for your support of our work fighting mountaintop removal, working to power local green jobs, or pushing back on fossil fuel profiteers like Vanguard. We hope you can join us on Sun Nov 9 3-6pm in Philadelphia for our 15 year anniversary! secure.everyaction.com/ZUsgcSXWaUmA...

Earth Quaker Action Team is 15 years old – thanks to you! As part of our community, you are co-creators of what we’ve accomplished – and what we’ll achieve in the future. We’re honored to have been on this path with you, and we’d love to celebrate our joy, spirit, and hope together.

Hey Vanguard, PLEASE create a fossil-free target date fund. People want that. They're leaving your funds because you don't have this option.

A few of us decided to swing by Vanguard CEO Salim Ramji's apartment building one evening, to see if we could catch him on his way home. We didn’t get to talk to Ramji this time, but we’ll keep coming back until Vanguard makes courageous decisions – for its customers, for the planet, for all of us.

Persistence for Existence: We showed up 3 times in 1 day to ask to Vanguard, the world's #1 investor in fossil fuels, to turn its ship around from industry laggard to responsible investor. www.youtube.com/watch?v=NLYT... 📹 by @ctcsky.bsky.social #VanguardSOS #NeverVanguard @afsc-org.bsky.social

As we prepare to celebrate our own anniversary, we're also celebrating 10 years of Philly Thrive -- community leaders and environmental justice champions shaping the city’s future for a healthier, more equitable city for ALL (www.phillythrive.org).

Persistence for Existence, we called it. After many months, literally thousands of contacts & no response yet, we walked up to the Vanguard executive office building & asked CEO Salim Ramji to meet with us. Vanguard responded to our request by having us arrested. eqat.org/press-releas...

In the morning, we went to Vanguard to ask to meet with CEO Salim Ramji. At lunchtime, we returned with more people to repeat our demands. And, in the evening, we visited Ramji’s home, to try to catch him as he was returning from work. We brought music with us, lifting our voices songfully.

In the morning, five of our F/friends went to the office building where Vanguard executives work to ask that CEO Salim Ramji meet with representatives of the #VanguardSOS campaign. Instead of speaking with them, Vanguard had the group arrested. eqat.org/press-releas...

🚨Happening now🚨 After many months of 1,000s of people contacting Vanguard, 5 people went to Vanguard’s executive office building today to request that CEO Salim Ramji meet with #VanguardSOS campaign representatives.

Get ready with me — well, us — as we prepare to take spirit-led nonviolent direct action at Vanguard, world’s largest investor in fossil fuels! #VanguardSOS #Faiths4ClimateJustice #SunDayofAction #SUNDay

After going to Vanguard CEO Salim Ramji’s home, we also visited President & CIO Greg Davis’s home to try to talk with him. No one was home, so we left our letter and a little gift. 1,000s of us have contacted Vanguard. We know they’re hearing us, so why aren’t we hearing from them? #VanguardSOS

A few of us went to Vanguard CEO Salim Ramji's home on his birthday to drop off a gift plus a letter asking him to meet with us. 1,000s of us have emailed, called & visited Vanguard's offices, bringing our campaign demands. We know they're hearing us, so why aren’t we hearing from them? #VanguardSOS

We know that so much is at stake – with increasing climate disasters & the gutting of climate protections – & we do not back down! ➡️Join us in action on Wed 9/10 at 12pm in PA at the world’s largest investor in fossil fuels, Vanguard.⬅️ More info & sign up: secure.everyaction.com/7UKP4BCoGEKV...

Vanguard CEO Salim Ramji told Morningstar that Vanguard's philosophy is that everyone should have access to investing and financial advice (www.morningstar.com/funds/salim-...). So, how does that hold up in practice? 1/4

This is tomorrow! Thursday, August 28th at 5:30PT / 8:30ET. See you there? www.mobilize.us/afsc/event/8... @afsc-org.bsky.social @oilgasaction.bsky.social @planetoverprofit.org

Big finance and tech corporations are fueling climate catastrophe, genocide, and the rise of authoritarianism. How can we hold these profiteers accountable, isolate their influence, and make them change?

Without the hundreds of billions of dollars that banks & investors provide coal, oil & gas, these polluting industries couldn’t continue on with business as usual. We demand change from those financing fossil fuel corporations, like Vanguard, No. 1 fossil fuel investor.

Shout out to our friends with @eqat.bsky.social! Climate activists are urging asset manager Vanguard to change course and adopt an Indigenous rights policy + divest from fossil fuels! 🛑 www.mychesco.com/a/news/socia...

Two banners appeared over a busy highway less than 1,000 ft away from Vanguard HQ, reminding Vanguard’s neighbors that the asset manager invests in our very destruction. Read more at www.mychesco.com/a/news/socia...

Behind the scenes of our banner drops near Vanguard, the world's #1 investor in fossil fuels Vanguard, make it possible for customers to save for retirement in ways that don’t jeopardize the future. Now's the time for company leadership to do what they can – for their customers, and for all of us!

Who wants to go to NYC next week for some powerful collective action? Many from the Gulf South are showing up to connect the impacts in their communities to the financiers profiting from these polluting industries. July 28 to Aug 1!

You can too!! eqat.org/never-vanguard/

Yet another "100 year flood" definitely not 100 years since the last one. We deserve to not only survive but to thrive, and we know we can win a better future. We demand action on climate and accountability for fossil fuel CEOs accelerating floods, fires, and fumes. Join us: eqat.org

And it's not just insurers! The #VanguardSOS campaign is calling on Vanguard, #1 investor in fossil fuels, to adopt a human rights policy that prioritizes Free, Prior, and Informed Consent (FPIC) for extractive industries and outlines consequences for companies that violate FPIC on Indigenous lands.

As Vanguard celebrates its 50th anniversary, we showed up to share the news with employees that customers have moved out more than $50 million – and growing! – because Vanguard keeps investing in pollution, unnatural disasters, and instability. 📷 by Rachael Warriner

We went to Vanguard’s HQ to share the news that more and more people are moving their money out because of Vanguard’s inaction on climate change – over $55 million moved and counting! 📈 📷 by Rachael Warriner Quaker Earthcare Witness, Stop the Money Pipeline

Vanguard to dos in 2025: 1) Meet with #VanguardSOS 2) Indigenous rights policy 3) fossil fuel-free funds Let Vanguard CEO Salim Ramji hear from us: actionnetwork.org/letters/tell...

💸 We've moved over $55 million out of Vanguard because of its inaction on climate change! That amount will continue to grow until Vanguard makes meaningful changes in its investment and engagement practices. (If you’ve moved your money, make sure to add to the total here: eqat.org/never-vanguard/)

“And the mainstream will ask that question over & over. You want a change? Well, what would that look like? So the fact that activists somehow got into a habit of not telling what it will look like is very self-destructive of our efforts.” #Vision @eqat.bsky.social‬ nonviolence3.com/george-lakey...

📞 The skills we learn at EQAT ripple out far and wide. Recently, we received a call for support from the organizers of the Hands Off! protest in Philadelphia. Did we have any experienced marshals who could join in helping to keep those marching safe? The answer was yes! 1/5

Spiritually-grounded activism has a kind of power that is needed in these times. Indeed, the current moment is revealing that the skills, talents, and experience of EQAT not only fuel our #VanguardSOS campaign, they extend beyond into other actions required in this moment. 💗 1/5

☀️ One bright morning, I stood handing out flyers and asking “Would you like to know what’s going on in the park today?” Someone stopped, smiled, and looked towards our group sitting silently in chairs in the center of the park. She asked “What IS going on in the park today?” 1/5

From @markgongloff.bsky.social in @bloomberg.com: Carbon pollution from US corporations will cost us more than the value of all of those corporations combined! And 3x more than the US's GDP! 😯 Why is Vanguard dallying when climate change will hurt it and its customers so much?

How good it was to come together from across the region to march for environmental justice, a green waterfront for Chester, and clean air for all 💚 Thank you Chester Residents Concerned for Quality Living! Learn more at chesterpaej.org 📷 by Rachael Warriner
