Grassroots Campaigns is a progressive organization that specializes in running face-to-face campaigns for political parties, candidates, and advocacy groups. By running campaigns on behalf of groups such as the American Civil Liberties Union, Democratic National Committee, the Nature Conservancy and Oxfam America they can focus on building up their membership and base of support. Also, through running field campaigns for candidates and other political organizations they can mobilize citizens to be more actively engaged and involved in politics.
Since 2003, Grassroots Campaigns has worked with many of the most progressive organizations and political candidates to date. Their campaigns have been on the front line of a variety of social change movements and historic elections. Their goal is to grow the progressive movement through face-to-face outreach.
In addition to running ongoing small-donor fundraising canvasses throughout the U.S., Grassroots Campaigns also has more than a decade of experience running cutting-edge voter contact, volunteer organizing, and grassroots advocacy campaigns on behalf of progressive political groups and candidates. The services they provide include:
Fundraising
They’ve helped build the small-donor membership base of some of the best and biggest progressive groups through millions of one-on-one conversations with supporters across the country.
Paid Voter Contact & GOTV
They’ve been running data-driven voter outreach campaigns since 2004, including knocking on millions of doors to help elect President Obama. For every voter contact campaign, quality interactions are their top priority.
They can run paid voter contact canvass offices in targeted races, for voter ID, voter persuasion, or GOTV.
Volunteer Voter Contact & GOTV
They can place trained organizers on the ground to recruit and manage volunteer canvasses and phone banks from an existing list or base of supporters.
Voter Registration
They can run paid canvasses to register voters in key districts or states.
Volunteer Recruitment and Organizing
They can place trained organizers on the ground to recruit, train and manage volunteers long-term around an advocacy campaign. Organizers call through existing lists of members/supporters/petition signers and build a network of trained volunteers ready to take action on behalf of the campaign.
Advocacy
Whether it’s getting petition signatures, creating thousands of citizen video appeals to send to Congress, or mobilizing supporters to hit the streets, they specialize in innovative advocacy campaigns that make waves.
Phone Services
They partner with a dedicated progressive call center with locations in CO, TX, MA, and CA to provide integrated phone services by callers who care about their causes. Integrated phone/field projects can be managed by a single project manager.
Training
They place the highest priority on training their staff to be excellent organizers. They can also help train your staff or volunteers in order to make your internal outreach efforts as successful as possible.
