How We Make An Impact

The Work We Carry Forward

Investing with purpose. Acting for generations.

At Seventh Generation Interfaith, we view investment not just as a financial act, but as a moral responsibility to forge a just and sustainable future for generations to come. We achieve this by empowering our members in active ownership and advocating for impactful public policies. By enabling shareholders to engage with companies and championing policies that ensure corporate accountability, SGI converts investments into powerful forces for systemic change.

Shareholder engagement turns even modest investments into powerful tools for systemic change, helping build a more just and sustainable world for generations to come. As part owners, SGI members influence corporate policies through dialogue, voting, and shareholder resolutions. Guided by research and strong relationships, SGI equips its members with the knowledge and resources they need to engage confidently and drive meaningful change.
