Responsible Endowments Coalition

Mission
The Responsible Endowments Coalition (REC) works to change the way colleges invest, shifting from investments that fund social and environmental destruction and creating pathways to investments that build community, a clean energy infrastructure, and a just economy.

What We Do

REC builds power by organizing students, alumni, university administrators, and the larger community to challenge and pressure universities to invest their endowments more responsibly. We empower these groups to understand the nuances related to the investment of money and how it plays huge a role in all aspects of society, either exacerbating or improving the environment, working conditions, human rights, and community relationships locally and globally. We are committed to building an inclusive, diverse movement that is representative of the constituencies most affected by corporate and environmental injustice.
