Your October MOMentum was incredible. Your generosity helped us dream bigger and bigger, then blow through goal after goal for voter engagement. By the time November and Election Day rolled around, we reached MILLIONS of mom voters--see some of the historic numbers below.
In keeping with MomsRising’s vision to reach moms where they are, MomsRising volunteers made millions of voter contacts through text banking and phone banking in addition to the postcard program, supported by the generosity of donors like you. The enthusiasm for this work was and continues to be at unprecedented levels. Together, hour by hour and day by day, we are building a better future for ourselves and our children.
Thank you for being part of the MomsRising movement.
Your generosity turbo-boosted MomsRising’s voter engagement work in October! Those numbers above continued rising through Election Day thanks to the person-to-person, mom-to-mom outreach we organized with our phone and text banks.
Together, we’ve reached TENS OF MILLIONS of mom voters -- especially low-frequency voters -- helping them register to vote, learn about voting options in their state, and vote early in record-shattering numbers!
Thank you for helping so many moms and families rise.
