OUR CURRENT PRIORITIES
From now through November, it’s all hands-on deck to save democracy
100 activists gathered at Meadowood Park to learn what they could do to help Dems win in November. We heard about:
Canvassing- up and down the ballot in PA
The importance of voter protection to counter voter suppression efforts
Letter writing to voters in swing states
How to make donations that make a difference
And locally:
Canvassing for Angela Alsobrooks in a tight race for Senate in MD
Registering Baltimore students to vote
Working as an election judge in Baltimore (thousands needed!)
We are all needed for these last weeks! Sign up here.

WHAT WE DO AND HOW WE STARTED
Be the Change was formed in late 2017 by Jennifer Downs and Betsy Krieger, two Baltimore activists who recognized the need to give people simple options to become politically active.
The mission of Be the Change is to connect our large community of concerned and dedicated activists to organizations, movements and candidates promoting social, racial and climate justice at all levels of government. We are particularly committed to ongoing learning about the root causes of inequality, and to acknowledging historical trauma stemming from racism.
