"How can I do more than just donating?" Look no further!
Below are ways to take action right now — both with MVP and with our grantee partners and non-grantee allies directly as they work to defeat authoritarianism, win power, and advance policy change.
Organize Donors With MVP
"How can I help fundraise for progressive political change?" Help MVP grow our movement of donors!
The MVP Donor Organizing Program is a political home for donor-activists who want to help MVP fund the year-round organizing and movement-building work we need to transform our country.
Donor organizing — fundraising from one's community and organizing others to do the same — is one of the highest-impact ways we all can make a difference.
The Case for Volunteer Donor Organizing
- Locally based organizing increases voter turnout more than impersonal voter contact.
- As a volunteer, raising funds for local organizing can actually produce the most votes per hour.
- There is more untapped money in each of our networks than we realize.
Featured Partner Opportunities

What about MVP's hundreds of local grantee partners?
Find MVP partners near you: Due to heightened security concerns in the current political environment, we are keeping our grantee list confidential to protect them from bad actors. Please fill out our Supporter Vetting Form, and we will follow up with you.
Please note: Because MVP partners are led by and for the communities they serve, they cannot always absorb volunteers not from or reflective of those communities — nor would it be strategic in many cases to do so. Please keep this in mind and approach them with a spirit of service and humility.
Get Out the Vote
"What are the best Get-Out-The-Vote organizations to volunteer with?"
MVP doesn’t lead GOTV work ourselves; instead, we focus on funding the community-based organizing groups already doing this work in the most critical places and races.
Top Recommendation: Seed the Vote
Seed the Vote (STV) recruits, trains, and supports volunteers from across the country to door-knock and phone bank with locally rooted organizations — most of whom are MVP grantees! — in the most critical swing states and races.
State Grantee Partners
- Carolina Federation and Down Home NC: People from all across the country are rallying behind North Carolinians in solidarity - join in the unified effort to reach as many voters by phone as possible across the state.
More Great Options
- Working Families Party: State by state and community by community, WFP is building a political home for all of us who see bigotry, bailouts, and business as usual in our political system and ask, “Is that the best we can do?"
- People’s Action is a proud national network of 38 member-based, power-building organizations in 29 states with more than a million members and tens of thousands of national volunteers.
- Indivisible is a nationwide movement of everyday people organizing on the ground in all 50 states to stop the rise of authoritarianism in the United States and to build a real democracy that works for all of us.
- Swing Left helps win elections for Democrats by making it as easy as possible for anyone to have maximum impact on the elections that determine the balance of power in our country.
- Showing Up for Racial Justice is a national organization that brings hundreds of thousands of white people into fights for racial and economic justice.
