If you’re a feminist and Obama supporter in the greater NYC area, this might be an election volunteer opportunity for you:

The Planned Parenthood of New York City Action Fund has officially endorsed Senator Barack Obama for President and we have our work cut out for us during this incredibly important election season. We need volunteers to help us get the word out about McCain’s anti-choice record and get voters to the polls.

Please join us for weekly voter phone banks at PPNYC on Wednesday nights from 6-9pm. We train you and provide you with a super easy script. Its easy! Plus free pizza and cookies! Invite your friends! RSVP to activists@ppnyc.org.

Also, we’ll be sending busses of activists to Philly to canvass and talk to voters on the following Saturdays -
October 4th
October 18th
October 25th
Cost: $10 – includes food, transportation, and one year membership to the PPNYC Action Fund. Current Action Fund members are free.

We’ll load busses in Manhattan in the morning, train you, send you out in groups with maps, materials, and snacks, and then return to New York in the evening. Please RSVP the monday before your preferred Saturday to activists@ppnyc.org

California voters: In comments, The Girl Detective mentions that there are many volunteer opportunities with Planned Parenthood against Prop 4, and opportunities to phone bank against Prop 8.

Also! Everyone in CA should volunteer to phone bank against prop 4 (Planned Parenthood has volunteer opportunities) and prop 8 (see noonprop8.com).

Read about two women who are Planned Parenthood activists who are improving women’s lives in Ventura County. Both adamantly oppose Prop 4. Adina Nack, author and associate professor at California Lutheran University, was honored for her activism at Planned Parenthood SBVSLO’s 9th Annual Ventura County Celebration.
