Be the Change helps connect people with issues and campaigns that can use their contributions of time and money. We support a range of progressive candidates and important reforms. As we work together, we build a sense of community.
Check out our Maryland/DC sister organizations for options to get involved:
Black Lives Matter
We follow and support the leadership and strategies of those directly affected by structural racism. Many of the groups listed below have been working on issues of racial inequality and police accountability long before the latest incidents. Please join and/or donate to support their work.
Organizing Black – building local power through transformational Black direct action organizing, political education, and participatory governance practices.
SURJ– a national network of groups and individuals working to undermine white supremacy and to work toward racial justice.
CASA – working to organize, advocate for, and expand opportunities for Latino and immigrant people in the states of Maryland, Pennsylvania, and Virginia.
Jews United for Justice – advancing economic, racial, and social justice in the Baltimore-Washington region by educating and mobilizing local Jewish communities to advance issue-based campaigns for concrete improvements in people’s lives.
