Donate

Our democracy is at risk and your support is critical for our shared efforts to protect it. We are currently opposing the Trump-MAGA agenda by working to win 2025 state elections in Virginia. We recommend donating to the following candidates and grassroots organizing groups.

donate to virginia’s governor and house races

Virginia’s 2025 statehouse and governor elections will be viewed as a referendum on Trump and the Republican’s MAGA-fueled agenda. We are all-in to flip the govenorship and hold the Dem majority in the House of Delegates.

We initially recommended funding five NOPE-vetted House of Delegates candidates — and we met our goal! We’re now recommending an expanded list put together by Dan Helmer, VA Delegate and chair of the VA Democratic Canvas. His PAC is supporting Congresswoman Abigail Spanberger for Governor and 17 great House candidates. (See some of them in the nearby image.) We promise that your dollars will make a difference! We recommend that you give ASAP. Early dollars have the greatest impact.

support key grassroots organizations in virginia

Grassroots organizers are crucial to turning out the vote in under-represented communities, especially in state and local elections. They build long-term relationships and earn voters’ trust.

Based on careful research, we whole-heartedly support CASA in Action’s Virginia program and the New Virginia Majority. Please donate today so they can hire the staff they need to succeed this fall.

Why I Value NOPE’s Advice on Giving

“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

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.
