Something amazing is happening in the last few days before Election Day -- and we want you to be a part of it.

OFA has teamed up with Swing Left, MoveOn, Indivisible, and over 70 other progressive organizations to get volunteers nationwide talking to voters during The Last Weekend.

Over 100,000 volunteers have pledged more than 600,000 volunteer hours. You should join them today, and sign up for a few shifts this week.

Study after study shows that the week before Election Day is the most pivotal time period to reach voters. You can volunteer on behalf of great candidates up and down the ballot, and make sure people near you have a plan to GO VOTE.

This election can be a turning point for our country, Sula. But we need volunteers like you to get involved.

Sign up for your shifts and forward this email to 5 friends or family members who also can volunteer:
