We need your help to continue our work.
Can you support us this year?

2026 marks the 19th year since we launched EJC. While initially we focused on education and awareness raising around issues of environmental sustainability, we soon realized that creating change required more than awareness.  Over the years, we have became effective in mobilizing people, organizing communities, and building coalitions with the power to make positive changes in our world. 

Changes in the political environment, some funders are moving away from climate and energy work. This makes additional private donations even more important.  Can you help?
