John, this Fourth of July, we’re not just celebrating freedom — we’re building it.

For thousands of young people across the country, service doesn’t mean waiting on someone else to lead. It means running for local office — to protect public schools, defend reproductive rights, and fight for the communities they love.

These aren’t career politicians or millionaires. They’re renters, teachers, caregivers, and students. People like:

📚 A school board candidate fighting back against book bans
🏠 A housing organizer running to stop evictions in her city
🌈 A first-time candidate challenging anti-LGBTQIA+ attacks head-on

Like this mother who’s running to make sure our kids have the best shot in life:

They’re not backed by billionaires. But they’re backed by us.

Run for Something is here to recruit, train, and support this next generation of public servants. But we can’t do it without grassroots support.

Will you donate today to help these candidates run — and win — this year and beyond?
