Get Involved
Volunteers Make the DifferenceSeed the Vote works to build the number and power of progressive elected officials, while also blocking the far right from taking power in federal elections. We do this by sending volunteers to “battleground” states to doorknock and phonebank in primaries and the general election.
Door Knock
Conversations with voters at the door are the most effective thing we can do to get people to vote. No matter where you live, Seed the Vote can help you participate in the most powerful voter outreach efforts in swing states. We partner with local grassroots organizations in each place we canvass to make sure you’re highly trained and supported while door knocking. Getting you there isn’t a problem; we can help you with travel and lodging logistics, and even financial assistance if you need it.
Where will Seed the Vote be door knocking and who are our partners?
This year, Seed the Vote will be door-knocking in key swing states along with our partners in Arizona, Nevada, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, and Michigan. Sign up now!

Donate and Fundraise
We don’t want cost to be a barrier for anyone who wants to canvass, so we offer financial support to cover hotel & travel costs for those who need it. However, we need to raise all these funds to support each other! It costs us $1,000 to send a single canvasser for a week.
Here’s how you can help make sure we can send 3,000 canvassers to swing states this year:
- Donate
- Help us raise funds by asking your friends and family to donate

Recruit Friends and Family
Want to organize your friends and family to defeat Trump and build progressive power? Form a Pod! 70% of Seed the Vote’s 9,000 volunteers in 2020 were recruited through friends and family and we need those numbers again this year.
What is a Seed the Vote Pod?
Pods are a structure for 3+ people to participate powerfully together in Seed the Vote’s voter outreach work – through doorknocking, fundraising, phonebanking, or some combo. Pods are an amazing way to build community, feel hopeful, stay motivated, and amplify your impact! More info here.
Start your own Pod and become a Pod Leader!
Fill out our Pod Leader Interest Form, and we’ll connect you with a Pod Leader Toolkit with recruitment templates and other resources to organize your friends and family. We even have Pod Leader coaches who can support your Pod to be a success! Don’t have people to recruit into a pod? No problem! We’re also forming pods of people who don’t know each other and want to take action collectively in the most strategic federal races. Fill out our Pod Member Interest Form and we’ll be in touch.
I’m not ready yet – but I want to keep getting more information!

Be part of the 2024 Team
Defeating Trump is up to us, not any lone candidate. Join us in canvassing and phone banking in swing states to beat Trump and win Democratic control of the White House, Senate, and House (Sept-Nov).
For the November elections, Seed the Vote will be working in battleground states where the Presidential race will likely be the closest, and where we need to defend Senate or House seats or have the chance to pick up new ones. Starting in early September, we’ll be in Arizona, Nevada, Pennsylvania, Michigan, and Wisconsin.
Sign up here to let us know how you want to be involved!
