Resources We Have Collective Tools To Change Company Policies For The Common Good Shareholder Proxy Votes Periodically, the board of directors of a company will ask its shareholders, or owners, to vote on issues that it is facing. These issues could range from the election of the company's board members to how it should deal with labor issues. By voting our shares based on our Proxy Voting Guidelines, the Sierra Club Stock Fund can help these companies adopt new policies that will make them more environmentally and socially responsible. Company Communications We meet with corporate managers to open a dialogue with the objective of educating these leaders about the priorities of environmentally and socially responsible institutional investors. Shareholder Resolutions We work with other shareholder groups, such as the Interfaith Center on Corporate Responsibility (ICCR), to identify companies with environmental and social practices that are potentially harmful to our planet. On occasion, the fund may lead or co-sponsor shareholder resolutions that are brought to corporate board meetings to encourage companies to change and improve their policies and practices.
