The members of the Coalition for the Delaware River can play a valuable role in encouraging voter participation, but are you wondering how your 501(c)(3) organization can effectively encourage your members to get out and vote on election days? Explore our toolkit, webinars, and resources below to learn about what you can do to help support clean water during election seasons.
Civic Engagement Toolkit
Is your organization struggling to figure out where to begin your civic engagement efforts? Whether you’re just beginning your efforts or looking for new ideas, our Civic Engagement Toolkit is a great resource for you. In collaboration with the Choose Clean Water Coalition, we have created a hub for civic engagement information. The toolkit includes voter registration information and deadlines for states within the Delaware River and Chesapeake Bay Watersheds, sample social media posts, graphics, email templates, and various resources. You can access our 2022 Civic Engagement Toolkit here.
