Dogwood Initiative is a not for profit organization dedicated to sustainable land (and sea) use in British Columbia. Organizing strategic campaigns and providing easy-to-use use tools (online petitions, email campaigns, etc.), Dogwood provides a unified voice for the concerns of individual citizens. While this kind of grassroots activism is nothing new, Dogwood stands out by bringing design into the mix and into the hands of activists. Most notably, Dogwood worked with Rethink Communications to develop the [Tankers Are Loonie Project](http://canadiandesignresource.ca/graphics/tankers-are-loonie-project/), which brought national attention for their No Tankers campaign. Perhaps inspired by the success of this project, the organization continues to work with all kinds of creative to enhance their efforts. Earlier this year, Dogwood called on the public to pledge their unique talents in support of the No Tankers campaign. Hundreds responded with commitments to organize demonstrations, exhibitions, marches, and other events (including a fund raising bike ride along the Great Continental Divide and a 1400km swim in the Athabasca River). Recognizing the need for more promotional materials, Calgary based designer John Vickers offered his services, creating a series of nine campaign posters – each featuring a different animal that could be threatened by an oil spill on BC’s coast (Bear, Sea Otter and Wolf are shown here). The entire series is available for free download on [Dogwood’s website](http://dogwoodinitiative.org/blog/pledger-makes-posters).
