The Virginia Climate Program

Climate changemakers identified candidates running for the u.s. House of representatives with strong climate action platforms in competitive races. We prepared dozens of online resources and hosted weekly zoom events dedicated to electing these candidates. At the direction of climate changemakers, volunteers called, texted, and wrote letters to voters in the candidates' districts, raised funds for their campaigns, raised awareness about these candidates on social media, and raised funds for nonprofit organizations in their district.

Climate changemakers created online resources on best practices in civic engagement and important solutions to climate change. This program also includes staff time spent building relationships with members who exhibit strong leadership potential, and helping them become effective community facilitators, both within the digital climate changemakers community and within their own communities.
