Indivisibles,

We’ll cut right to the chase -- tomorrow is Giving Tuesday, one of our biggest fundraising days of the year, and we need to raise $130,000 by the end of the day if we want to stay on track for our goals and fully fund all our Indivisible Civics work next year. And the good news is that if you give today a generous donor will match it, so your $10 will go twice as far as it would otherwise!

We emailed you a few days ago about our big plans for next year, and today we want to drill down on what those plans are going to take and how your financial support (today, Giving Tuesday, and every day) helps make them a reality.

Here’s how your gift supports our work:

The Work We’re Doing: Organizing and Movement-Building

The Indivisible movement is entering our fourth year, and we know it can become even more of a progressive powerhouse. Our groups are working nationwide to build an inclusive civic engagement movement, and we’re providing the tools, training, and infrastructure they'll need to make it happen.

• On-the-ground organizing -- our experienced organizers are invaluable resources for group leaders and other progressive activists. They help groups plan events, improve racial equity and inclusive practices, and recruit and sustain membership. We're spending more than $1 million next year to keep our organizers on the ground all over the country.
  
  
• Trainings and gatherings -- organizers also run specific trainings to help local groups be as effective as possible, and we host regional gatherings to bring leaders together to learn from each other and build a more locally, regionally, and nationally coordinated movement. All in all, we're planning to spend more than $350,000 to plan and execute these trainings.
  
  
• Ongoing issue education -- we’re committed to providing the context and expert analysis that Indivisibles need to become effective progressive leaders. That means we’re constantly producing guides and working with activists to educate the public and elected representatives on key issues like democracy reform and immigration. We've budgeted almost $450,000 to keep our policy team working on the issues that matter next year.

And maybe it isn’t as glamorous, but it takes a lot to keep an organization like ours running. While it might not make a splashy image for social media, all the infrastructure, technology, and staff time we use to communicate with Indivisibles, do policy research, work in partnership with progressive coalitions, and keep our resources up-to-date is absolutely crucial to making sure Indivisibles have an impact.

All that work is funded by people like you. Luckily, we have a few generous donors who are matching every dollar Indivisibles give, up to $100,000, by the end of the day tomorrow, which means your impact is doubled. So we need you to make a gift today (it’s tax-deductible!) to support our movement-building, training, and all our other work.

How We Make It Happen: Our Fundraising Philosophy

Our fundraising philosophy is fundamental to our work, and it informs every ask we make of you. Our movement is built on the principle that individuals, working together, can do amazing things. And that’s how we want to be funded too.

We don’t take corporate cash or money from political parties, because we’re not a corporate or party movement. We’re a people’s movement, which means we’re funded by the people.

When thousands of people, including you, give what they can, we do amazing things. Our goal is to raise $130,000 by the end of the day tomorrow -- every dollar of that will go straight toward building a stronger progressive movement. And every dollar comes from someone like you making the choice to support that movement.

And because we have donors matching every dollar Indivisibles give by the end of the day tomorrow, up to $100,000, if you give now, your support will go further than ever. We’re ready to make change together next year -- can you pitch in $10 right now to have your tax-deductible gift matched and support all the work Indivisible will do next year?

If you’ve saved your information with ActBlue Express Lane, your donation to Indivisible Civics will go through immediately:

Give $10, we get $20 >>

Give $25, we get $50 >>

Give $50, we get $100 >>

Give another amount, we get double >>

This movement was made possible because people like you believe in the impact we can have together. We can go even further next year, but we need your support to make that impact a reality, today and every day.

In solidarity,
Indivisible Team
