Your chance to meet President Obama

Organizing for Action
Diane --

If you want to see real change, you have to fight for it. That's something grassroots organizers have believed for years -- and it's how we've seen wins this year on everything from marriage equality to climate change.

But community organizing isn't just something that experts do. It's something we all have an opportunity to take part in -- whether it's meeting up at a rally, contacting an elected official, or even starting a conversation about the issues that matter to you.

Those first steps are important -- and they're the focus of our next summit, where you'll have the chance to meet President Obama. And whether you're a fledgling organizer or an expert, you have an opportunity to make yourself heard.

Say you're ready to take a new step to fight for change this fall, and you'll be automatically entered for a chance to meet the President at our summit this November.

We already know more battles are looming -- there's no doubt that for a lot of folks, kitchen table conversations are heating up.

When it comes to issues like equality for all and a smart budget, if we want to see real success, we've got to be ready to work for it -- and for many, that means getting back in touch with the basics of community organizing.

OFA has resources to help just about anybody who's interested -- whether it's our Connect platform, our grassroots network, online resources like our climate training site, or our letter to the editor tool, we couldn't be prouder to offer many next steps for millions of organizers.

That's why I'm so excited about this summit. And if you sign up today, you'll be automatically entered for a chance to meet the President.

Don't miss it -- say you'll take a new step for organizing and you'll be automatically entered:
