On Thursday, November 4th, 350 Illinois partnered with the Loyola Student Environmental Alliance (SEA) for a postcard sorting party to support the Climate Safe Pensions Illinois Campaign and the Fossil Fuel Divestment Act.
Over the course of two hours, approximately 15 college students, fueled by pizza and a shared commitment to climate action, sorted nearly 1,500 postcards and identified the appropriate Illinois state representatives and senators for each one.
A special thank you to 350 Board Member and SEA Co-President Aana Shenai for helping coordinate the event and recruit students to take part in this important effort!
Through 25 events across the state, 350 Illinois/Chicago have collected signatures on postcards in support of the legislation. These postcards will help amplify community voices and demonstrate growing support for a fossil-free future in Illinois.
Thank you to everyone who volunteered their time and energy to make this event a success!
