You know the kind of things your congressional leaders like?
What YOU have to say. And why would they like that?
Because as a constituent of their congressional district this shows them what bills their constituents want them to support! And yet, it's not very common to find people mobilized to reach out to their own Representatives in Congress.
Research from 'The Borgen Project' shows that you'll often find that constituents neglect the power they have in contacting their leaders over the phone with a 30-second phone call asking for bill support or using a few clicks to send them a pre-written email for bill support.
If you know your zip code, have the ability to make phone calls and know that you want to help people then The Borgen Project will do the rest. When you go on their website to make phone calls or email them, you just need to enter your zip code and then you'll only need to call your leaders or hit send on the pre-written email.
"What is this Borgen Project you speak of?"
You know, I know we've only been talking for a while but I feel like you're pretty smart. What a great question! The Borgen Project is one of the greatest opportunities to make a big impact with little effort.
The Borgen Project is a national, non-profit organization who fights for the underdog at the political level to downsize global poverty. Sound like a lot? But they make it very practical and easy!
"Why focus on the political level?"
Wow, you're so deep! Great Question! The Borgen Project recognizes that policy influences poverty rates. The research all over their platform is filled with evidence on how the mission of global poverty can be reached more effectively from, for example, changing policies that provide a host of resources for a region versus sponsoring one starving child. What about changing the rules around so now anyone living on $1 a day and all of their friends and family can have the same opportunity of resources?
Is this not beautiful? Now donations aren't "a drop in the bucket" because you're donating to policy changes that will help the masses versus a few! And if our aim to change is global we should have a global strategy, right?
"Alright, alright. How can I help/get involved?"
