We are grateful for the support of:



​Patagonia supports KSEC's Political Working Group and its efforts to educate and empower young Kentuckians to participate in the political process.

​Patagonia Works supports small, grassroots, activist organizations with provocative direct-action agendas, working on multi-pronged campaigns to preserve and protect our environment. They believe that the most direct path to real change is through building grassroots momentum.
The Chorus Foundation supports KSEC's Just Transition Working Group and its efforts to amplify young voices in the discussion of what comes next for Kentucky's post-coal economy. 

The Chorus Foundation works for a just transition to a regenerative economy in the United States. They support communities on the front lines of the old, extractive economy to build new bases of political, economic, and cultural power for systemic change.

​
Lush Cosmetics supports KSEC's Catalyst Summer Camp, the Solutions Tour, and general promotion. 

In 2007, Lush invented a beautiful body lotion called Charity Pot. 100% of the purchase price (every single penny minus the taxes) goes towards supporting humanitarian, environmental and animal rights causes locally and around the world.
​Resist is a foundation that supports people's movements for justice and liberation. They redistribute resources back to frontline communities at the forefront of change while amplifying their stories of building a better world.

​The Appalachian Community Fund (ACF) funds and encourages grassroots social change in Central Appalachia. ACF works to build a sustainable base of resources to support community-led organizations seeking to overcome and address issues of race, economic status, gender, sexual identity, and disability. As a community-controlled fund, ACF offers leadership to expand and strengthen the movement for social change through its practices and policies.
​A group of allied funders are stepping up to help meet some of the growing needs that grassroots social, racial, economic, and environmental justice organizations are articulating during these challenging times through a combination of both aligned and pooled funding. The Still We Rise Fund is designed to be a nimble pooled fund that is facilitating, scaling and accelerating the delivery of responsive funding to a diverse range of community-based organizations across the country.

KSEC is thankful for our allies and networks:

The Stay Project is a diverse regional network of young people working
together to create, advocate for, and participate in safe, sustainable, 
engaging and inclusive communities throughout Appalachia and beyond.
​Kentuckians For The Commonwealth is a statewide citizens organization working for a new balance of power and a just society. They use direct action to challenge—and change—unfair political,economic and social systems. 
The Power Shift Network mobilizes the collective power of young people to mitigate climate change and create a just, clean energy future and resilient, thriving communities for all.

Through the collective power of young people, the Power Shift Network is working for a safe climate and just future where communities are thriving and own their power—whether that power is electrical, economic, social, or political.
​The New Economy Coalition (NEC) is a network of organizations imagining and building a future where people, communities, and ecosystems thrive. Together, we are creating deep change in our economy and politics—placing power in the hands of people and uprooting legacies of harm—so that a fundamentally new system can take root.
CJA demands bold action by government and industry to confront climate change and advances grassroots-led Just Transition solutions to address the root causes of the environmental crisis.
