The Solidarity Caravan and Builders Delegation
A group of carpenters and volunteers are organizing and sending a working delegation to the NoDAPL encampment in North Dakota. We leave Vermont on Friday, November 18th, arriving on Sunday the 20th and working through Thanksgiving week. 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. We are currently gathering material and monetary donations. Please contact erok for list of needed items. Bring material donations to Montpelier Unitarian Church Sat Nov. 12th at 7pm or contact erok 802-454-1979 to arrange otherwise.

Other Ways To Help Out
FUNDRAISE
DONATE DIRECTLY TO NODAPL PROJECTS IN North Dakota HERE- https://nodaplsolidarity.org/support-the-camps/
Help spread the word, put on an event, walk door to door, and raise some cash to help support the ongoing efforts. Money is needed for legal and logistical support.

TAKE ACTION! There are ways we can take action locally to oppose the DAPL and to protect the land and water. There is an event being planned for Sunday 11/6 at noon in downtown Montpelier, stay tuned. TD bank is a major financier of the DAPL, Michels Construction is one of the companies build the DAPL, they are also building the fracked gas pipeline in VT. Actions that target these players and any others tied to DAPL are needed. Divest from TD Bank, stop the VT Fracked Gas Pipeline, be creative and support local actions!

Consider Coming to Standing Rock
Water Protectors have put out a call to action urging all folks who are experienced in direct action to come to Standing Rock. If you have experience working on rigorous outdoor projects and can deal with cold conditions and want to consider coming out with the Builders Delegation please be in touch with us.

If you are considering going out to be an ally please read this Ally Bill of Responsibilities - http://www.lynngehl.com/uploads/5/0/0/4/5004954/ally_bill_of_responsibilities_poster.pdf

Thanks so much for supporting the people in North Dakota who are defending the water, the air, the earth and our collective future.
In Solidarity,
