Last week’s election made one thing clear: community organizing works, and young people have the power to create long lasting change. But our advocacy is as important as ever.
For the second election in a row youth voters turned out in record breaking numbers. Once again, our generation made history. And that’s cause to celebrate.
As ballots continue to be counted and the Georgia runoff election nears, our full impact is still unknown. What we do know is that young people flooded the polls to vote for the causes they believe in — and as a result, climate champions were elected up and down the ballot across the US.
This election was by far the costliest in US history. Young people proved that grassroots organizing is more powerful than corporate money and fossil fuel greenwashing. But we’re up against steep opposition. We need to keep up the pressure for climate justice.
We’re excited to announce that all gifts up to $500 will be matched before Giving Tuesday. Can we count on you to give $10 today to support youth organizers continuing this critical work?
Thank you for continuing to support young leaders fighting for the future we know is possible. With your support, we will continue to make history.
Onward,
Our Climate’s Team
