Groundwork is one of the only national political organizations funding hyper-local groups and folks organizing for progress in our partner states – the very frontlines of conservative dominance in our country today.
With your support, our work powers the organizers fighting back against the GOP’s most oppressive policies by building power within their communities – in other words, YOU can make a difference!

Thanks for your support,
Emily
