Past event
Nov 12, 2016, 7 PM

Yes, VT is showing up hard in North Dakota! A steady stream of folks have been heading out there to support. Here's a list of things you can do to help from home:
~ The Standing Rock Rally @ TD Bank 10 THIS SATURDAY 11/5
~ The Standing Rock VT CARPENTERS DELEGATION FUNDRAISER @ the Montpelier UU 7 PM SATURDAY 11/12
~ National Mass Actions for Standing Rock @ Army Corps of Engineers on 11/15 (Details TBA)

RALLY AT TD BANK THIS SATURDAY ~ This Saturday, Nov. 5 at TD Bank in Montpelier.
There will be a rally at the Bank Branch on State and Main. Some people will also close their TD Bank accounts because of TD’s funding of the Dakota Access pipeline and Enbridge, owner of 26% of THE VT Gas parent company, Gaz Metro.
Central Vt SURJ (Showing Up for Racial Justice) are organizing with VT's climate justice movement to take this action in solidarity with #NODAPL. We get stronger when Climate Justice Groups and Racial Justice Groups work together!

We're picking up volunteers and supplies in a growing list of cities on the way, and will be working with the Red Warrior Building and Winterization team on a large strawbale community center and other projects.
