Donate
Our work this year is not done! Taking back the Senate can only happen if Georgians elect Jon Ossoff and Rev. Raphael Warnock on January 5, 2021, and we know that motivating unlikely voters is the key to victory. We recommend donating now to three reputable organizations focused on registering and turning out Democratic voters in Georgia.
With all eyes on the two Georgia Senate races, the question is where your donation will make the biggest difference. Flip the Vote recommends donating now to three groups with proven track records of relational voter turnout in their communities. These groups will be able to act quickly to engage and turn out voters of color who will be critical to winning this pivotal election. All three groups are partisan 501(c)(4)s, which means they can specifically target Democractic voters; donations to them are not tax deductible.
