The League of Indy Voters
Kids are pissed off — and savvy about it.
Billy Wimsatt, the founder and director of the League, partnered with us and Tate Hausman to help figure out how to explain their strategy to potential funders.
As one of few ’04 election orgs to survive after the show was over, the League of Independent Voters has proven their strength and relevance.
Their ideas are strong, so we focused on methods to engage major donors. Our strategy outlined key steps to communicate this orgs unique strength as both sophisticated and truly youth driven. We highlighted personal stories behind its powerful network-based model for organizing.
These attributes enabled the League to survive between elections, and positions them to adapt and grow. Working with us to tighten the presentation of their story, they can truly shape the democratic process.
