Get Involved With the BDS Movement

Posted on March 7, 2014

There are a number of ongoing BDS campaigns nationwide in which supporters of peace with justice in Israel/Palestine can become involved. Locally, the Rachel Corrie Foundation actively defends and supports the gains of the Olympia Food Co-op, the first food institution in the U.S. to implement a full boycott of Israeli products. We also support boycott of and divestment from Caterpillar Inc., and efforts by religious communities like the United Methodist Church and Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) to boycott and divest from Caterpillar Inc. and other companies profiting from the illegal Israeli occupation of the West Bank, Gaza, and East Jerusalem. To get involved with Rachel Corrie Foundation BDS efforts, please contact [email protected].

Local Campaigns

Olympia BDS – Olympia BDS is a grassroots network of community members in Olympia, WA, joining the call by Palestinian civil society for a nonviolent, global movement of boycott, divestment, and sanctions of Israel, until it meets the requirements of human rights and international law.

TESC Divest! at the Evergreen State College – TESC Divest! is a student-led organization in Olympia, Washington working to end Evergreen State College’s complicity in Israel’s abuses of Palestinian human rights through the non-violent tactic of divestment.

National Campaigns

U.S. Campaign for the Academic and Cultural Boycott of Israel (USACBI) – USACBI is a U.S.-based campaign focused on a boycott of Israeli academic and cultural institutions, responding to the call of Palestinian civil society to join the BDS movement against Israel.

U.S. Campaign to End the Israeli Occupation – The U.S. Campaign is a coalition of over 380 local, regional, and national groups working to end U.S. support for Israel’s occupation of the Palestinian West Bank, Gaza and East Jerusalem through a variety of strategies, including BDS. The Rachel Corrie Foundation is one of the member organizations of the U.S. Campaign.

We Divest – We Divest is a campaign by Jewish Voice for Peace – the largest US-based grassroots organization dedicated to promoting full equality, democracy, and self-determination for both Israelis and Palestinians – to pressure TIAA-CREF, one of the largest financial services companies in the United States, to divest from the Israeli occupation.
