STOP THE INFLUENCE:
REJECT BIG TOBACCO AND VAPE MONEY

WHAT:
Tobacco and vaping companies cast partners or charitable giving recipients as allies, and accepting funding or partnership from these companies can imply support for their deadly business. Stop the Influence organizes youth-serving, environmental, social and racial justice, and public health organizations; college and university leaders; faith groups; and cultural institutions to join forces to reject funding from or any form of partnership with the tobacco and vaping industry and expose donations for what they are: another industry public relations tactic.

Take Action!

Stop the Influence: Reject Big Tobacco and Vape Money, a partnership between the African American Tobacco Control Leadership Council (AATCLC), Black Women’s Health Imperative, Campaign for Tobacco-Free Kids, and Truth Initiative, is answering the call from hundreds of young leaders and activists from across the country who joined together in November 2020 for Moment of Truth, a virtual gathering to speak out against tobacco and vaping companies and hold them accountable for the harmful effects they’ve had on public and mental health, the environment, and social justice.
