Donate to support oakland youth vote
The Oakland Youth Vote Coalition is a group of youth and adult allies representing several organizations working together to build youth power. The coalition is anchored by the community-based organization Oakland Kids First (OKF), and OKF manages all donations made in support of Oakland Youth Vote. OYV Coalition membership also includes the groups: AYPAL, Californians For Justice (CFJ), the Oakland Youth Commission (OYC), and OUSD’s All City Council Student Union (ACC).
A donation to Oakland Youth Vote secures voting rights for 16 and 17 year-old Oakland students so they can hold those who run their school district accountable to their needs. Studies show that younger first time voters are more likely to be lifelong voters and more likely to inspire their families to vote. In Oakland, Youth Vote creates an on-ramp for democratic participation for youth of color and their families who are disproportionately underrepresented in our local government.
Your gift will be used to empower youth organizers and coalition members to
- Pre-register and register voters
- Civically engage students across high schools to prepare voters to participate in elections and learn more about the role of school board
- Educate voters about school board candidates through events and outreach
- Build power for Oakland youth
Please give generously to Oakland Youth Vote during this historic election year!e
