Team,
We hope your long weekend was as restorative and inspiring as ours —Team GWP spent Martin Luther King Jr. Day supporting the King family’s call to action. We are fighting to end the filibuster and pass the John Lewis Voting Rights and Freedom to Vote Acts. You can join us by calling your Senator: 1-888-408-2349.
As you know, Groundwork recently launched a project with the King Family called Give Us The Ballot. With Martin Luther King III, Arndrea Waters King, activist LaTosha Brown, artist/activist John Legend, and so many other incredible cofounders, Give Us The Ballot supports local community organizers on the frontlines of the battle for voting rights — a battle that has never been more urgent.
We are so excited to announce that four amazing Groundwork Partners from our focus states have been selected as Give Us The Ballot Grantees!
Our Dual GWP Partner/Give Us The Ballot Grantees are…

Sustained support of community organizers is THE key to turning the tide, winning in this moment and building the country we deserve.
