Proposition 103 “Get out the Vote” Phone Bank
Proposition 103 is the only thing standing between Colorado students and another year of short-sighted education cuts. It’s crunch time! Ballots are out across the state, and the difference between winning and losing in an off-year election is whether we motivate enough Prop 103 supporters to get their ballots in.
We need your help making calls to Proposition 103 supporters to remind them to vote!
Join us for the Great Futures Coalition Prop 103 Phone Bank!

Denver Chapter Volunteer Drive
In the second week of October, Denver voters and voters all across Colorado will start receiving their ballots in the mail. As you know, we need to make sure that every voter receiving the ballot knows the importance of Proposition 103. It’s the only chance to put an end to the educational cuts next school year. Those cuts would result in increased class sizes, cause teacher layoffs, and make higher education less accessible.
We need your help!
- Help us call other Great Ed supporters and talk to them about Proposition 103 and how they can help pass it.
- We also have letters that we need your help addressing and writing short notes to voters about proposition 103.
- If you can, please bring $0.44 Postage Stamps with you so we can make sure that every letter gets sent!
When: Tuesday 9/27 from 10:00 AM – 2:00 PM
Wednesday 9/28 from 10:00 AM – 2:00 PM
Tuesday 10/4 from 10:00 AM – 2:00 PM
Wednesday 10/5 from 10:00 AM – 2:00 PM
Thursday 10/6 from 4:00 PM – 7:00 PM
Where: Great Education Colorado Office- 1000 East 16th Ave., #018 Denver, CO 80218
Please RSVP with date and time to: lizeth@greateducation.org
Help us reach as many targeted voters as possible to pass Proposition 103, so we can reinvest in the education of Colorado students.

Please RSVP at lizeth@greateducation.org
We will be talking about Proposition 103, and the different ways you can help contact voters from your neighborhood and across Colorado. If you can’t make it to the meeting but still want to be part of the chapter and the effort to pass Prop 103, let me know and I will send you more information about the different tools we have and how to use them.
You’re welcome to invite others who would want to be involved in the Chapter to our meeting on Monday. Either way, please pass on this link to anyone who might be interested in helping improve the way Colorado invests in our educational system with Prop 103: http://salsa.democracyinaction.org/o/2700/p/salsa/web/common/public/signup?signup_page_KEY=6200
