SUMMARY:2025 Sister District MA-RI & Friends Phonebank!
DESCRIPTION:Join Sister District MA-RI to help our candidates build progressive power in state legislatures in 2025! This year\, we’re working to hold the VA House (where all 100 seats will be up for grabs)\, and driving voter engagement to flip the VA Governor’s mansion for a Democratic trifecta. \n\n\n\n\nRSVP for Zoom Link\n\n\n\n\nWhy phonebank? The data proves it: phonebanking is THE BEST volunteering option for remote voter contact. We identify supporters and let them know why their vote matters\, speak to undecided voters\, and recruit local volunteers for crucial state-legislative races. Every call helps us tidy our lists\, which helps our candidates and makes for a faster\, more efficient phonebank! \n\n\n\nCome one\, come all: No experience necessary. Each Zoom phonebank includes training and check-ins for first-timers (experienced callers can jump right in). We’ll share successes and address questions throughout. Our veteran phonebank leaders will help you get comfortable\, increase your effectiveness\, and make sure you have a great experience.

SUMMARY:Intro to the Power Building Team
DESCRIPTION:Black Voters Matters works to increase power in marginalized\, predominantly Black communities. And while effective voting is an important way for a community to determine its own destiny\, that’s only one way the organization strives to build power. In addition to voting and electoral organizing\, Black Voters Matter supports community-based organizations working on a wide range of issues such as mass incarceration\, gentrification\, health care\, education and more. \nWe are looking for volunteers who want to join our power building team and make a real impact. Each volunteer opportunity helps to increase voter engagement\, supports protecting our right to vote\, and gets us closer to our goal of building permanent\, progressive power in Black communities! Start your power building journey by joining us on Tuesdays at 5pm ET for the volunteer orientation. \nYou will learn more about Black Voters Matter\, what to expect as a volunteer\, and the ways you can volunteer. \nInvite friends\, family\, and colleagues to join you! \nPlease note\, you only need to attend one volunteer orientation. \n\n\n\nRSVP
