Thank you for all you are doing to support America Votes and our partner organizations on the frontlines, as we work to build progressive power at every level of the ballot. Right now, America Votes and our partners are undertaking an enormous effort to spread out the vote and then get out the vote amid converging crises across our democracy, public health, racial justice, and others.
As we tackle the next 60 days leading into the most impactful election of our lifetimes, many organizations within the America Votes coalition are in need of volunteer help to supplement their staff capacity for contacting voters. America Votes has compiled the following list of active volunteer opportunities across our national and state partner organizations. The list includes a variety of programs, from calling and texting voters around the presidential and state legislative elections in Wisconsin to answering voter protection hotline calls in North Carolina, and more.
If you have any questions or would like to chat further about these opportunities, please contact Mairin Kazmi at mkazmi@americavotes.org.
