Volunteer with MVP

Welcome to the MVP Volunteer Donor Organizing Program!

Our purpose is to build a movement of donors funding grassroots organizing.

Note: MVP doesn’t lead GOTV work ourselves; instead, we focus on funding the local organizing groups best positioned to turn out key voters in critical states and races.

Take on a Volunteer Role

Volunteers help keep our work moving and support the growth of the movement. These roles support the hundreds of house party fundraisers people host that raise millions of dollars for our partners each cycle.

At this time we are asking all new volunteers to help maximize our fundraising efforts by hosting your own party, or doing a personal fundraising campaign, or joining an online party host team, for which you can sign up by filling out our volunteer intake form. (Select “Co-Host an Upcoming Party.”)

We are not currently training new presenters, coordinators, and Zoom managers. Check back here in a few days for new volunteer opportunities in the final stretch of 2024.

Please contact volunteer@movement.vote with questions.

Volunteer Resources

What *is* donor organizing?

Drawing from Marshall Ganz’s organizing framework, we view it as identifying, recruiting, and developing the leadership of donors; building community around those donors; and building power out of that community to fund our work. 

MVP Communications resources

Use the following resources to support your MVP donor organizing efforts:

  • Brand Book: A guide to help you communicate on behalf of MVP in a way that aligns with our brand strategy.
  • Logos: Official MVP logo files you can use in a variety of contexts.
  • Templates (Google Docs + Google Slide decks)
  • Photos: Publicly usable photos from our grantee partners.
  • Communications Calendar: A calendar of planned MVP public communications. Note: All items, details, and dates are subject to change.
