Hi team,
I just want to make sure you saw this note from Joe. I am so thrilled that Groundwork Project’s reach and impact are expanding — but with that, comes major financial responsibility.
Groundwork provides sustained, long-term financial support to the incredible organizers in our partner states. We take that commitment seriously, but in order to honor it we need to hit our fundraising goal by Thursday at midnight.
We have $67,000 to go — donate here to help us reach our goal.
More below!
Thank you,
Julia Hoffman
Senior Advisor

We started Groundwork Project because we believe that sustained, year-round investments in local community organizers is the best way to remedy injustice, build power in historically excluded communities – and win elections. We have turned our mission into action through our Groundwork Project Partner State program, Groundwork Organizer Grants, and our organizer spotlight series. But it’s time to kick it up a notch.
After many inspiring conversations with organizers in our partner states and careful budgeting, we are so excited to share that…
GWP is currently taking applications for our next round of grantees!
That’s right! Groundwork Project is so excited to partner with another round of grantees who are doing the vital work of building long-term progressive political infrastructure in our partner states.
GWP wants to be ready with the resources in the door once we find the right fits. We need to raise $75,000 by Thursday at midnight to determine how quickly we can move resources. Can I count on you to give $16 right now?
Now remember, Groundwork Organizer Grants are:
- Unrestricted: We give our grantees full control over how they choose to use their grant.
- Multi-Year: We are not in the business of boom and bust election fundraising, we are committed to building long-term relationships and long-term power.
- Holistic: GWP is committed to a true partnership with grantees, offering strategic guidance, tools, trainings, and wrap-around support.
In order to have a strong foundation to support our next round of grantees, we need to hit our goal by Thursday at midnight. Can you chip in $16 right now to help us get there?
Sincerely,
Joe
