CAMPAIGN
#NotAnotherDime
COMMUNITY MEMBER
As we watch countless university solidarity encampments being shut down through brutal police violence, we MUST support the protesters.
Our #NotAnotherDime campaign is a declaration to ALL universities with which you are affiliated as an alumni, parent of a student, or parent of an alumni, declaring that they will NEVER receive another dime from you until and unless they divest from weapons manufacturers and companies with an interest in Israel, and verbally acknowledge Palestinian existence and humanity.
Use our templates below to send an email to your affiliated universities AND put something on your social media.
Disclose. Divest.
Or not another dime.

To the Board of <your affiliated university>,
My name is <your full name> and I live in <city/area>. I have long been a proud supporter of <university name>, donating both my time and money to the university.
Yet, having watched countless university solidarity encampments be shut down through brutal police violence enacted by university administrators; having watched students be arrested, beaten, and dehumanized for peacefully protesting a genocide, I am writing to ask YOUR position on Palestinian humanity.
Please hear me: if <university name> does not openly divest from weapons manufacturers and companies with an interest in the Israeli occupation, and verbally acknowledge Palestinian existence and humanity, you will never again receive my time, support, or another dime from me.
Not only will I NO LONGER donate my time and money, I will use my voice to speak to each and every person in our community to ensure they also never send another dime.
Disclose. Divest. Or not another dime.
Yours sincerely,
<Your full name>
