Jake's CCN Fundraiser

As many of you know, I co-founded CCN (called Fossil Free Research at the time) in 2022 alongside a scrappy team of campus organizers committed to fighting for a better future. At the time, none of us could have imagined what was in store for our new organization. 

Since those early days we have trained thousands of students to become stronger leaders and supported historic campaign wins across the US and around the world. Our work has been covered by the most prominent newspapers in the country and cited by the US Congress. We've grown to a team of 5 full time staff with nearly 40 stipended roles for students and alumni. We have changed students lives. This work has changed my life. 

We're building something special at CCN. In many ways we've only just begun.  

Sustaining and scaling this important work is not easy. That's why I'm turning to you (my friends and family) for help. Our team has set an ambitious goal of raising $10,000 for CCN by Tuesday, October 6th. I've set a personal goal of fundraising at least $1,000 from at least 15 individual donors. Earth Gives is offering additional rewards to the organizations that have the greatest number of individual donors -- that means that even by donating $10 to CCN you could help us access thousands more. 

If you support the work I'm doing and have been looking for a way to act on the climate crisis, this is your chance to step in. Donate today.

$20 pays for a meal at a campus training.

$100 pays for supplies for a student protest.

$500 pays for experienced organizer to go support students on campus.

$1,000 pays for a semesterly stipend for one of our volunteers.
