To the Friends of our Mon Valley Clean Air Coalition (MVCAC) ....

It is herewith proposed that we join DivestMVP so as to limit Greenhouse Gases

and the impacts of Climate Change. Let me know if you have any reservations, questions or comments. Such can be held confidentially, if appropriate.

Hello,

I hope you are well. I’m reaching out to ask if your organization can join the DivestMVP Coalition that’s calling on the 10 major banks funding the fracked gas Mountain Valley Pipeline to stop funding the MVP.

If you have been following the story, the Mountain Valley Pipeline is facing numerous hurdles, but still claims to be in service next year. We want to convince their major funders that MVP is a bad investment idea.

So far, the DivestMVP coalition has made significant progress in educating the banking and investing community about the threat MVP poses to our communities, waters, lands and climate as well as the losing economics of this project that’s $3 Billion over budget and 3 years behind schedule. We currently have the support of nearly 100 investors representing $233 Billion of assets under management who are joining us in demanding banks stop funding the MVP. Already, hundreds of activists have sent letters to banks telling them to DivestMVP.

Now we’re reaching out to our friends and allies like you to ask for your support by becoming a member of the DivestMVP Coalition via this google formhttps://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeFsNWYfc_seOEsYwRBmVtBgaL-MCiy1z9273h443fLpbD7yg/viewform?usp=sf_link, if possible by February 18. In particular, please indicate the number of members and supporters for your organization.

Coalition members:

- Will be listed as a member of the DivestMVP coalition on public facing materials such as, but not limited to, press releases, websites, and letters to banks and investors.

-Will receive a community toolkit with guidance and materials for social and traditional media, a personal divestment guide and much more!

-Commit to share with your members/supporters opportunities to speak out to banks such as action alerts, event invites.

-Will be added to a list-serve to receive and share campaign updates, resources and successes!

If you’re not quite ready to join the coalition, that’s OK! Register for freehttp://rb.gy/jq8vmv to join us on February 25 for a Virtual Rally to learn more about the coalition’s efforts and ways to get involved or reach out to Joan.Walker@sierraclub.orgmailto:Joan.Walker@sierraclub.org to get your questions answered.

Thank you! Jim Kotcon, Conservation Chair, WV Chapter of Sierra Club
