Join our Volunteer Slack Community
Slack is our “Virtual Campaign Office” where MVP volunteers can get updates, connect, get support, and contact staff quickly & easily.
Join if you’d like:
- Real-time MVP volunteer updates and stories from MVP-funded grassroots groups.
- Community, camaraderie, & connection with like-minded MVP volunteers everywhere.
- An easy way to share questions, ideas, and feedback directly with MVP staff.
- A way for teams to communicate quickly without starting or sifting through group email threads.
