Purpose
ICCR is a coalition of faith- and values-based investors who view shareholder engagement with corporations as a powerful catalyst for social change. Our tag line “inspired by faith, committed to action” sets forth our pledge to be active owners, and to engage meaningfully with the companies in our portfolios through the process of shareholder engagement that we pioneered over 50 years ago. Our guiding principle as shareholders is that sustainable corporations must look beyond the next earnings report to account for the full impact of their businesses on society, and must view the well-being of all of their stakeholders ― including their workers and the communities where they operate ― as integral to their long-term success.
