Celebrate two decades of cultivating young progressive leaders – and help us power the next 20 years of change.

People For the American Way Foundation.

Friend,

For 20 years, People For the American Way Foundation’s Young Elected Officials (YEO) Network has been training, uplifting, and investing in the leadership of young progressive elected officials across the country – and we’re just getting started.

As we look toward our 20th Anniversary National Convening taking place in just six weeks, we’re reflecting on two decades of transformative impact: over 1,300 YEOs supported in every state and territory, empowered with the tools to defend democracy, advance justice, and fight for freedom for all. And now, at a time when our democracy is facing growing threats – from disinformation, censorship, and voter suppression – we need bold, visionary young leaders more than ever.

That’s why we’re asking for your support today. Will you chip in to help us continue this vital work for the next 20 years – and beyond?

In a rapidly changing world – with rising authoritarianism, growing inequality, and transformational shifts in technology, climate, and culture – the stakes are high. But so is the promise of a new generation of leaders who reflect the diversity of America and are ready to fight for a better, more inclusive future.

The YEO Network’s 20th Anniversary Convening will bring together hundreds of YEOs, policy experts, activists, and faith leaders for three days of immersive issues and skills-based training. It will be a defining moment – not just for the attendees, but for our entire movement.

Your support helps make this gathering possible. And more importantly, it supports the young leaders as they do their work year-round – in school boards, city councils, state legislatures, and beyond.

This isn’t just a conference. It’s a recommitment to building the leadership we need to meet the moment – and to fight for the future we all believe in.

With gratitude,

P.S. We’ve come a long way in 20 years – but the future of our democracy depends on what we do next. Your contribution will help us train, support, and elevate the progressive leaders who are stepping up to lead in a time of extraordinary challenge and opportunity. Donate now >>
