Students are often at the forefront of movements to build a better future for our country. Whether or not those students make real progress depends on whether they are organized, have the skills to be effective and a strategic plan to get things done.

Here are just a few of the victories the Student PIRGs organizers have accomplished recently:

- Our chapters helped to raise over 10k dollars for local organizations during Hunger and Homelessness Awareness Week in November.
- In February, we hosted our Annual Federal Lobby day "virtually" and over 150 students met with their representatives to call for Congress to double Pell Grant Funding.
- In Massachusetts, we helped pass the Student Loan Bill of Rights to protect student loan borrowers and the Pollinator Protection Act to save the bees.
- In California, we committed the University of California campuses to phase-out single-use plastics, paving the way for campuses to be free of non-essential plastics by 2030.
- In Oregon, we banned foam cups and take out containers in the city of Eugene.
- In Florida, we worked to get Eckerd College signed on to the Break Free From Plastics pledge and stop the use of single use plastics on campus.
All the while our program involved and trained thousands of students leaders to work on our campaigns!
