Thank you so much to each and every one of you who has donated in support of TX Votes over the last 30 days! We are blown away by your support and kindness. Thank you!
We are in our last 24 hours of fundraising, with the Hornraiser ending at 9 am tomorrow morning. If you know someone who has considered donating, but hasn't yet, please encourage them to do so before tomorrow morning.
Thanks to your support, we blew away our stretch goal of $7,476 this morning. Just wow! Thank you again from the bottom of our hearts. We will make your proud next year as we work to recruit more members of TX Votes, to train more students as Volunteer Deputy Registrars, register more students to vote, and provide more nonpartisan information about voting and democracy throughout the school year.
Wow! Just wow! In less than 40 hours, we raised and won a combined $5,423 thanks to your incredible support! We worked hard and won the following challenges for a total of $2,250 in prize money:
Since we've surpassed our fundraising goal, but still have nine days left to fundraise, we are announcing a stretch goal of $7,476 in honor of the day the Declaration of Independence was approved.
Thank you so much! We could not have done it without you!
Thank you so much to everyone who has donated to our Hornraiser so far! Because of people like you, we have already reached 10 percent of our fundraising goal (in less than 10 hours!!!). Please consider sharing our message with others you think love voting as much as we do. We are posting about the Hornraiser on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram.
Thank you so much!

Support one TX Votes Member for one semester. This will allow a member to participate in activities, meet speakers, and fund materials for one semester.
Support a TX Votes Member for one year. This will allow a member to participate in activities, meet speakers, and fund materials for one year.
Support one TX Votes meeting. At our meetings, we invite speakers, talk about the best ways to help UT students become civically engaged, and grow our community on campus.

Fund the travel accommodations and conference fees for one student to attend a conference like the Civic Learning and Democratic Engagement Meeting or the Harvard IOP National Campaign Conference.
The Civic Engagement Alliance is a non-partisan coalition of student groups, which TX Votes has brought together to increase civic engagement on campus. In 2016, CEA members came together to register over 17,000 people to vote.
TX Votes organizes events for students, holds meetings, leads the Civic Engagement Alliance, and encourages civic participation for all students across the UT campus. This will help us fund these efforts for a semester.
This would fully fund TX Votes meetings, events, and all supplies for a year.
