John: Did you know that women candidates running for elected office are outraised by men at a rate of 3 to 1?
With so many issues, like reproductive rights and equal representation, on the chopping block, it’s more important than ever that we support progressive women and make their voices heard in public office.
That’s why Run for Something is excited to partner with WomenCount to make it quick and simple to donate directly to young progressive women running for elected office across the United States.
Too often, women’s campaigns go underfunded, and they rely more heavily on grassroots donations than men do when it comes to fundraising.
WomenCount is the only women-run donation platform that focuses entirely on Democratic women candidates, which is why we’re thrilled to team up to elevate this lineup of incredible young women. By supporting these women candidates, you’ll be playing a big role in building the pipeline of future women leaders who will fight on the issues that matter most.

Leading the lineup is Heather Sievers, a registered nurse with a deep personal connection to some of the harmful education reform happening in Iowa. Heather is challenging a male incumbent who has played a significant role in Iowa House legislative attacks on the LGBTQIA+ community. Her seat is one of the top flip targets for House democrats.
