Less than four months remain before the general election. And we need your help to get out the vote.

We are planning a $15,000 digital marketing campaign to reach 500,000 families with unregistered female residents aged 18-35 before the November general election. A million digital ads will direct these women to VOTE411 to register to vote, to learn about candidates, and to prepare to vote.

Thanks to those who’ve already responded to our appeal, we have raised $11,6000 toward our goal. But we need to raise an additional $3400 to launch this campaign in late summer.

We know digital campaigns work. Thanks to the early generosity of some donors, we invested in a small campaign this primary season. We purchased 137,000 digital banner ads, viewed by a targeted audience we couldn’t reach in any other way. In just ten days, 19 percent of those opening the ad pictured at right registered to vote.

With your support, we can do so much more leading up to November. We are poised to launch a robust statewide Register to Vote campaign in August followed by a Get Out the Vote campaign in October. We’re 78 percent of the way to our $15,000 goal. With your help, we’ll raise the remaining $3400!

I thank you who have already contributed and urge those of you who have yet to do so to make a donation today.
