FairVote's push for a sustainable path forward continues today! Happy Giving
Tuesday, John!
I joined FairVote in 2017 to be part of the change our democracy so desperately
needs. As part of my reporting for my bookRatf**ked: Why Your Vote Doesn't Count
on the most extreme partisan gerrymanders in our nation’s history – an
eight-figure, precision-targeted scheme to rewire state legislatures and
congressional maps nationwide – I realized this organization had the most
persuasive solutions.FairVote pushed forward on the strength of its ideas and a
commitment to better elections for all, a far cry from the cynicism and fancy
corner offices along Washington, D.C.’s K Street.
Since then, I have witnessed FairVote and our movement’s growth on every front,
whether winning statewide ballot measures, quintupling the number of places
using ranked choice voting, garneringnewalliesand support in the pages of theNew
York TimesandWashington Post, and growing this team to the size and skill it
contains today. FairVote has thrived thanks to our supporters, who make this
crucial work sustainable through their giving.
Those of us concerned about the future of our democracy have much to doubt and
despair. Yet, FairVote and our movement offer another way forward – one where,
with hard work and the right resources,we deliver change and victoriesthat
empower voters, build trust, and ensure our republic lives up to its potential.
In order for FairVote to meet its promise of “Winning in 2024 and Beyond,” our
fundraising team is hard at work – building our monthly giving base so we can
sustain long-term plans to keep winning and expanding our movement.
I would like to highlight a few of the best ways to become a monthly donor with
FairVote that will maximize your impact and help us reach new heights in the
critical election year of 2024 and beyond:
* Join our giving collective – FairVote’s new Giving Collective program allows
donors to receive exclusive benefits in exchange for their contributions.
Join at any level today.
* Use employee matching programs – Many corporations and institutions offer
generous matching gift programs for pre-tax charitable giving. If your
company needs additional information to make a matching gift, the team at
FairVote is glad to help in any way possible.
* Use combined federal campaigns – For those who work in the federal
government, FairVote is an approved charity to receive gifts through the CFC.
You can sign up for payroll deduction via the OPM’s website.
Being part of FairVote’s growth and impact has been incredibly rewarding, and I
encourage you to join us bygiving monthlyto this important work.
I wish you and your family a happy holiday season, and look forward to the work
we’ll do together towards a better democracy in 2024!
