https://runforsomething.net/

its a website.
its a movement.
They are looking for progressive millenials and Gen Z to run for office for the first time and you'll have their backing and campaign assistance every step of the way.


Run for Something has helped elect nearly 500 people since 2017

Personnel is Policy.
Politics are Local

Power to the People, y'all. Get involved

When I saw your post, first thing I did was try to find you on their site.

Good luck on your application and best of luck in your race either way. Keep us posted

One of our recently elected city officials was a RFS candidate.

They have a podcast as well with interviews RFS candidates/winners. The episode with the young woman who went from being a heroin addict locked up to getting well and winning her election was really inspiring.

It was wild watching tonight's panel highlighting several of RFS Black candidates and thinking how smart and passionate a line-up they had in contrast to ANYONE the right is putting forward.
