Supporting grassroots organizing groups

We believe that supporting grassroots organizing groups that empower communities of color and other under-represented voters - like those that helped turn Georgia and the US Senate blue - is the long-term key to wins for Democrats up and down the ballot. These groups work continuously to build trust in their communities - through advocacy as well as voter registration, voter protection, and turning out the vote. Donations are always timely. Please join us in supporting our organizing partners in all our battleground states as they prepare for the 2024 elections.

supporting carefully vetted candidates

At the national level we will concentrate on the alignment of US Senate races with the Electoral College votes needed to retain the White House. Watch this space: we’re developing a slate of Senate and House candidates for 2024.

At the state level, we support candidates where Democratic wins can protect voter participation and influence the outcome of US Senate, House and Presidential races.

We’ve just completed a major effort in Virginia where every state legislative seat was on the ballot in November 2023. We’re proud to announce that 9 out the 12 outstanding candidates for the Virginia Assembly won their races! Holding the majority in Virginia Senate and flipping its House of Delegates will protect voting rights, abortion rights, the environment, and more.

Why I Give Through NOPE

“I think of NOPE as a political investment advisor. They help me get the best return on my money - when the return I'm looking for is democracy, progress and justice.” - ALICE WINKLER

“I am excited about the impact of my contributions through NOPE, which has worked strategically and effectively to identify and support candidates running in political races that affect the national balance of power and to support local, grass-roots organizations that bring voters to the polls in critical states.” - STEVE TUROW

“The daily news is depressing and frightening; I see our democracy crumbling.  I know we need to build support for Democrats and progressive policies.  NOPE’s targeting has been spot on for the past few years, so I feel confident my donations through NOPE are contributing to the movement forward.” - LAURIE WELCH

“My husband, Barry Zigas, and I both like the fact that NOPE, an all-volunteer, neighborhood-based organization, has a strategic approach to deciding where best to deploy resources in defense of democracy. The Organize for Democracy campaign is a thoughtful, considered approach to financial support.” - JODIE LEVIN-EPSTEIN
