2020 was a BIG election year and a busy year for LWVPDX. In 2020, the League provided more nonpartisan election information than ever before. In addition, 2020 was the 100th anniversary of the League’s  founding.  Now in 2021, we have entered our second century and we need your support as much as ever. 

For more than 101 years, the League of Women Voters has defended democracy and built an informed, engaged community of voters. Now, your Portland League (LWVPDX) is continuing this work in our second century. You can support our work with donations, your membership or gift memberships.

Why we need your support

All year long, the LWVPDX works on issues that affect the livability of our communities. We serve the people of Multnomah County through our voter service, in-depth studies of issues, recorded panel discussions, and advocacy. We need donations to support our volunteers, pay for an office, and pay the costs of producing our programs and publications. Because a lot of the League’s work is done by volunteers, every dollar in your donation goes a long way to helping voters and improving our communities. 

With your support, LWVPDX will continue to be strong into the next 100 years, shaping a world where people’s votes and voices matter. THANK YOU!
