The most important thing we can do in Pennsylvania to win the election is to register new voters. And where do you find young unregistered voters all in one place at the same time? At college campuses of course.
We are lucky enough to be partnering with Project 26 PA, a group that is widely recognized on PA campuses as ambassadors of civic engagement and voter registration. Their goal is to register 10-12,000 students Before the November election and they need all the help we can offer.
You will be registering students at Thomas Jefferson University (TJU) , a city school with nearly 4,000 undergraduates, that states on its website that they are “the only true inter-professional community including students of all ages, colleges, and programs.”
All the materials we need will be provided by our partner, Project 26 PA plus they will give us a brief review of filling out the voter reg form when we arrive.
To ensure that you are well trained and will be successful, we ask all volunteers to sign up for a 90-minute training session on September 6th at 12:30 PM. You can sign up for that
HERE.
We will be on campus for 3 days at a time (Sept 10,11, & 12 and Sept. 24,25, & 26) registering voters in conjunction with student fellows and a full time paid organizer from Project 26 PA. Please sign up for at least 2 consecutive days and all 3 if you can.
Being welcomed on a campus is a BIG DEAL. Don’t miss this golden opportunity! When your grandchildren ask what you did to preserve Democracy in 2024, you will definitely have a story to tell.
