About this event

Join us for 60-minutes of music, campaign & organizing updates, and Day of Action news!

In 2023, we need you to stop the flow of money that keeps the fossil fuel industry expanding. 

Thousands of Third Actors took the pledge to close their accounts and cut up their credit cards from the four big banks—Chase, Citi, Wells-Fargo, and Bank of America—if they don’t stop lending money to the people destroying our climate by 3.21.23.

Tune in as we share information about our upcoming Day Of Action, along with how to find actions in your area!

Your participation is the fastest way for us to build and sustain our movement of elders who are working together to take on Wall Street and Washington to ensure the sustainability of our communities for the next generations.
