Our church just sent out over 2,000 postcards to voters of color who are at risk of being purged, and now we are taking the next step in this collaboration with North Carolina N.A.A.C.P. and Reclaim our Vote by making calls to these same votes to let them know about local resources to help them vote.
UU the Vote is organizing zoom phone banking sessions for UUs nationwide so we can see each other's faces and offer support we make these important calls to fight voter suppression.
...the question is....
What's the count of collective hours of critical calling that Community Church can create?!
If we make over 60 hours, Marion will dye her hair the color of our choice!
Can you pledge to make calls? Please express your interest below.
Details:
-We will be joining a weekly Thursday night phone bank sessions with U.U.s nationwide who are excited to help in combating voter suppression in North Carolina.
-If you are joining as part of the 29 Day Racial Equity Challenge you can join phone banking from 6-7 before your weekly discussion. For more details about this visit:
