National Voter Registration Day is Proud to Announce Partnership with ALL IN Campus Democracy Challenge (ALL IN)
Washington, DC – National Voter Registration Day is proud to count the ALL IN Campus Democracy Challenge (ALL IN) among the 150 major national partners backing this year’s civic holiday. ALL IN is a national nonpartisan initiative of the nonprofit Civic Nation and is dedicated to improving civic learning, political engagement, and voter participation among college students across the country. ALL IN is excited to be joining National Voter Registration Day this year to help mobilize this mission to an extensive network of college and university campuses.
“With more than 40 million Gen Zers preparing to vote in this upcoming election, engaging and educating young voters is crucial for the health of our democracy,” said Jen Domagal-Goldman, Executive Director of ALL IN. “We’ve identified several measures that will impact ballot access so that young voter turnout can be the highest it has been.”
Through this collaboration, ALL IN helps mobilize young college students through email outreach, social media campaigns, and on-campus registration events. Given their expansive reach, ALL IN has been able to impact more than 1,060 campuses including community colleges, minority-serving institutions, Hispanic-serving institutions, and Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs).
“ALL IN’s commitment to empowering students on over 1,060 campuses nationwide is transforming the landscape of civic engagement for young Americans from coast to coast,” said National Voter Registration Day Campaign Director Chyann Sapp. “By fostering a culture of active participation and civic education for the newest generation of voters, they are building the foundation for a stronger democracy of the future. Their focus on ensuring every student, regardless of background, has the tools and opportunities to register and vote is a shining example of how we can come together to ensure every voice is heard.”
The National Voter Registration Day network continues to grow nationally and locally. In addition to the record 15,048 major national organizations and businesses signed on this year, 4,500 local partners – including nonprofits, libraries, colleges, and others across the nation – will be promoting voter registration in their own communities to help ensure that every eligible voter has the opportunity to participate in the upcoming election. “As we gear up for the 2024 National Voter Registration Day to be held on September 17, we are coordinating with other organizations and preparing robust follow-up actions, including phone banking, text messages, email, and mailers to keep newly registered voters engaged and informed about upcoming elections,” adds Sapp.
