Amount Raised So Far

Help us launch our first-ever QuakerEarth Mapping Fellow this September! This full-time Quaker Voluntary Service position will power the growth of our QuakerEarth Campaign—a bold initiative connecting Friends worldwide in Spirit-led climate action. The Fellow will expand our interactive QuakerEarth Action Map, build relationships with Quaker meetings across the globe, and share inspiring stories of Earthcare to strengthen our collective witness.

We’ve already raised part of the costs of this position in a QEW fundraiser this Spring, with 34 donors raising nearly $14,915 of the $24,000 we need in total. It was a beautiful start to our efforts but they’re not quite over!

Now we need to raise the final $10,000 in August to fully cover the costs of this new position in QEW! Your gift will help a young Friend step into leadership, amplify Quaker climate action, and inspire more meetings to take bold steps for our planet. Together, we can put Quaker Earthcare on the map!

Quaker Earthcare Projects We’re Mapping

Funded around the world by QEW Grants!

The QuakerEarth Campaign is a decade-long effort to unite and amplify Quaker Earthcare efforts around the world. In this critical decade for climate and ecological survival, we are building a global Quaker network capable of coordinated, courageous, and prophetic action. The first stage of the campaign consists of four primary components, which our new QVS Mapping Fellow will spearhead:

Mapping – creating the first global map, database, and network of Quaker-led Earthcare efforts
Storytelling – sharing multimedia testimonies of faithful action to inspire and connect
Consulting – supporting Meetings, Schools, and Organizations in deepening and growing their Earthcare witness
Action – using our growing network to launch bold national and global initiatives, including campaigns for legislative change, diplomatic advocacy, and on-the-ground sustainability efforts

Monteverde Friends and Meeting have installed net-metered, large solar arrays on both the school and some of the teacher housing.

Green lawn with solar panel array — Friends Theological College through the Grinnell Friends Church in Iowa received a mini grant for their solar panel array.

Centro de promocion y desarrollo de la mujer, acahual — In conjunction with ProNica, Mini-Grants funded reprints of pamphlets on birth control. These were used in a workshop for women. Copies were given to the Population Committee in Quaker Earthcare Witness.

Green pollinator garden — Quaker Earthcare Witness helped the church create a pollinator garden. The children completed very large, colorful models of the stages of butterfly metamorphosis displayed in the fellowship hall wall. Grandparents, adult children, and grandchildren planted native wildflower seedlings together.

QEW's Six Goals for the First Phase of our Campaign

These efforts are grounded in six core aims — our Six C’s — which express the moral and strategic heart of the QuakerEarth Campaign:

Connect Friends globally – Unite Quaker Meetings, Schools, and Orgs worldwide to share witness, support, and solidarity.
Celebrate Earthcare stories – Lift up faithful acts of environmental witness to inspire Friends and allies across the globe.
Coordinate efforts – Reduce duplication, share tools, and increase the coherence and power of Quaker Earthcare action.
Catalyze new action – Inspire and activate Friends to take bold, Spirit-led steps for climate justice and ecological healing.
Companion Friends on the journey – Support, encourage, and walk alongside Friends as they deepen their commitment to Earthcare.

Call forth prophetic leadership – Summon the courage, clarity, and coordination needed for bold, Spirit-led action in a time of crisis.
