Benefits of Partnership
According to this case study from Harvard’s Ash Center, organizations can make a difference and also benefit from civic engagement initiatives.
Leadership and staff support is critical; money is not. C70 is here to help you make use of organization-wide emails and intranet, social media, and Employee Resource Groups to enact a successful civic engagement campaign in your organization.
- C70 will help you create a tailored plan to promote National Voter Registration Day, Vote at Home process and deadlines, and Election Day, including sample messages and a communications calendar.
- C70 will provide your organization with tools and resources to learn about the candidates, including our renowned Interactive Voter Guide, and an interactive briefing to help employees learn about the recent big changes to PA’s election law, find their polling place, learn about the offices and candidates on the ballot, and answer their questions.
- Next level partnerships: C70 can help you promote voter participation and active citizenship with your external stakeholders, customers and community, too.
