Postcard Bootcamp
The Second Wednesday of Each Month
8:00 pm to 9:00 pm ET (Next session September 11th)
Hosted by Markers for Democracy. We’ll share everything you need to know to write for every postcard campaign!
When you join our Postcards For Democracy program, you can help save democracy by encouraging voters to get to the polls to vote for Democratic candidates in battleground areas, notifying voters about special elections, and educating voters on how to make a plan to vote. We will help you get started and be a "Sharpie Warrior" in no time.
Register For The Bootcamp Here
At the conclusion of the Bootcamp, participants are welcome to join our Wednesday evening postcarding regulars to write postcards and chat about politics, policy, and whatever else is on our minds.

Students for Voting Justice SVJ is writing to 18 to 29 year-old registered Black voters in Pennsylvania. The cards are mostly pre-printed with a message urging young people to vote in the upcoming election. The cards highlight issues of importance to young people -- abortion rights, climate justice, economic justice, and more. The postcards have a QR code that will take them to a site that will enable them to check their registration and identify their polling locations. All that is needed is a small personal touch -- adding a "Dear [First Name]," a bit of colorful decoration, and then signing the cards with your first name only. Stamps are provided. Each card should take no more than 3 to 5 minutes. Cards can be picked up on the East Side in NYC or shipped if necessary. We ask that people request minimum of 100 cards at a time in increments of 100. Cards are write, hold, and mail any time between mid-September and mid-October. Request postcards HERE.

Our team must reach every high-potential Native Democratic voters on Navajo, Hopi, and White Mountain Apache lands in Northeast Arizona. With your help, we can empower Native voices in Arizona politics to vote for a Blue Arizona. Our organization has no "off" years - the Presidential election may be in 2024, but our voters are there every year and building our relationship doesn't take a year off.
Please sign up to get a list of 25 voter addresses and a script to help us reach our voters. There is no actual meeting on Fridays for this project: 10am AZ time is the cut off time for registering for that week.
This volunteer effort allows us to keep our funds in the field and increase the number of organizers we can have on the ground. We now have four full time Native field organizers: you help make that possible with these cards to voters. Thank you!
