Join the League of Women Voters and be part of an organization that is:

    • Empowering millions of voters to exercise their right to vote by holding voter registration drives, sponsoring candidate forums and debates, and educating the public about their rights on Election Day.
    • Protecting the right to vote against threats and ensuring that every vote is counted by fighting for and implementing voting systems that are free, fair and accessible.
    • Advocating for positive change at the local, state and national level on issues such as education, government accountability and money in politics.
    • Fostering civil dialogue about important community issues, such as government spending, climate change, immigration and civil liberties.
Check out the list below to see if one of the many local Leagues in our great state is located close to you. For those who require it, we also offer membership as a member-at-large in the League of Women Voters of South Carolina with all the same benefits.

Interested in forming a local League in your community?

State League board members are happy to work with interested groups in areas of the state where there are no local Leagues. If you live too far from a local League to participate in their community-based voter services and advocacy work, please contact our LWVSC Director, Member Services.
