What are chapters and campus partners?
Chapters are college clubs created directly through the Every Vote Counts framework. Campus partners are pre-existing college campus clubs or organizations with similar goals as Every Vote Counts. Both chapters and campus partners can receive funding, strategic support, networking opportunities, initiative roadmaps, and more.
Beyond having access to our resources, chapters and campus partners can also benefit from media coverage. Every Vote Counts has been featured in the likes of Forbes, The New York Times, and the Wall Street Journal, with many of our campuses being featured in our latest op-ed.

Student Testimonials
“EVC enables us to foster greater civic engagement and enthusiasm on our campuses through its emphasis on student-run chapters. As such it gives students an opportunity to lead the charge in democratic activism, putting their thoughts and viewpoints at the forefront of the organization.”
— Fausto Rojas, Brown University
“I chose EVC for the transparency. There is no better way to serve your student constituents than being a student. I appreciate the way the dedication is to maximizing voting potential for all, and recognizing where there are faults in need of reform.”
— Zoe Baltrush, UConn
“My freshman year of college I was looking for a community of politically engaged students. I found that community in my university’s EVC chapter. The voter registration drives and civic education workshops have been a great opportunity to get my campus excited about civic engagement!”
— Maria Merkle, Fordham University
