League of Women Voters Grosse Pointe

Empowering voters.  Defending democracy.

Serving the Grosse Pointe and Harper Woods communities since 1950

thank you, lwvgp!

It was an amazing election season and our members participated at full strength.  We put on forums for the 13th district of the US Congress and the Grosse Pointe School Board, along with a program on the Senior Services Millage.  We held fall voter registration drives.  We sent hundreds of postcards and thousands of text messages to Get Out The Vote.  We distributed thousands of LWVMI Voter Guides and hundreds of Know Your Voting Rights booklets.  We helped city clerks by preparing Absentee Voter Ballots for mailing. We mentored high school students creating amazing voter information videos and conducted our first ever GOTV poster contest.  Some of our members worked as Election Inspectors, poll challengers, on absentee voter counting boards,  and Canvassing Observers.

Whether you worked directly on these events or kept the league going with membership, Observer Corps, communications, finance, and special projects, you were a big part of our mission this fall.  Thank you!

WHAT’S NEXT?

We take a short break to enjoy our family, friends, and the holidays.

Members:  don’t forget to check our Upcoming Membership Events page to find out about our annual Cookie Exchange and board meeting in November.

OUR 75TH YEAR!!!

We’ll be back at work in January.  As we begin to plan for 2025 and a celebration of our first 75 years, now might be a great time to invite a friend to join us.  Can you imagine our League at twice it’s strength?
