We’re counting on your support today
People For Supporter:
We know the threat against voting rights for the Black community is real and active, and as we approach the critical midterm elections, we’re counting on your support to keep this work going.
In 2020, we first launched our get-out-the-vote plan focusing on increasing turnout of Black, male voters to the polls. This resulted in mobilizing 200,000 Black male voters – nearly 70% of those we engaged – and we want to build on that success with proven strategies like:
-
Direct outreach to scientifically targeted voters via text message, where our organizers not only make a strong case for voting but provide vital information on voting and corrections to the disinformation many of these voters may encounter.
-
Activating our leadership networks, like our national network of African American clergy, to mobilize the vote in their local communities.
-
Running radio ads across multiple states to reach and empower Black voters.
-
Sharing video and toolkits for online advocacy across social media.
We’ve set an ambitious goal to build on the success of 2020, and get 1 million Black men to the polls across 15 states for this year’s election. But we need your support to make it possible – please rush your donation of any size, right now, so that we can operate at full speed! >>
Voting rights of many historically marginalized populations are under attack, and we know that focusing on this specific group most targeted by voter suppression can help improve outcomes across communities. A rising tide lifts all boats.
Please – your donation today could make the difference in voter turnout in these important midterm elections – particularly, in states where far-right extremists and 2020 election deniers are trying to suppress the vote of those whose votes have historically been under attack.
We can drive massive voter mobilization when we come together to defend the Black vote!
In solidarity,
Svante Myrick, Executive Director

Radical Right extremists are trying to turn back the clock on a century of advances in civil rights, women’s rights, workers’ rights, the social safety net and more… they’re waging an all-out assault on the fundamental pillars of our country – democracy, checks and balances, a fair and independent judicial branch, and core values like fairness, equality, and justice for all.
People For is fighting back every day with:
✔ Grassroots organizing
✔ Lobbying and advocacy
✔ Research and education
✔ Voter mobilization
✔ And more…
But we can’t do this vital work without the robust grassroots financial support of our members and activists.
Please help fund the fight for progress and stand against right-wing extremism with an urgently needed donation to People For today>>
