Join us in the fight for economic justice and an end to global poverty.

Build the movement for global justice in the UK

A window of opportunity

In the run up to the general election, we have a window of opportunity to get politicians to listen to our call for justice.

We need your support to mobilise local activists around the country to demand that potential MPs commit to action on global poverty.

Please will you give £50 today, or however much you can afford to help us mobilise local activists at this crucial time?

  • £30 could help pay for briefing reports for local campaigners about what a financial transaction tax could achieve.
  • £50 could pay for materials for stunts, such as the hire of a JCB to highlight RBS' investments in destructive energy projects like tar sands.
  • £150 could help us found a new campaigning group in the UK.

Support activists who are demanding global justice

Making a donation can help us support activists around the UK who are taking action to challenge the use of public money in banks.

WDM activists are demanding that RBS and other publicly owned banks invest in socially useful projects instead of activities which are contributing to human rights violations and environmental abuse.

With your support, WDM local activists will lobby MPs, run stunts and gain local press coverage during a week of action on this important issue. Please give however much you can afford now.

Activism works

Grassroots activism is alive and well - local activists are changing our world for the better one step at a time:

  • In 2009, WDM activists were among those who led to E.ON halting plans to build a new coal-fired power station at Kingsnorth in Kent.
  • Between 2005-2008, local activists fought tirelessly to end water privatisation in developing countries and as a result, last year, the EU granted 40 million euros to fund public water utilities.
  • In 2005, our local activists fought for the cancellation of $50 billion of developing countries' debt and won.

Make a donation: challenge injustice

It's an outrage that top bankers are accepting billions of pounds in bonuses while more and more people are forced into hunger and poverty around the world.

If you don't have time to take action yourself, or even if you are already taking action, please make a donation to stop this injustice.

We rely on the generosity of individuals to fund our campaigns. Your support is truly appreciated and every penny will help bring more good to the world.
