Information for Groups & Campaigns

Why choose WeGov?

WeGov provides a technology platform for Groups and Campaigns to help more effecitively mobilize voters, recruit members, and raise money. We set ourselves apart from the pack by providing you with members who are registered voters. You can then use those registered voters to create a louder voice. Setting up an account, complete with donation engine, can be done in hours instead of waiting days/weeks or months for someone to build it for you.

Here’s how it works:

Features Include

• Custom URL: Drive people to your page with your name or abbreviation in the URL (ex. washington.wegov.com)
• Freedom to design and build multiple pages: Our content system is simple and intuitive. Customize with HTML, subpages, etc. It’s all yours!
• Donations: Using our processing partner, simply create an account and you’re up and running within hours. Yes, its that simple. Learn more
• Aggregated RSS: We all use multiple social media channels (Twitter, Facebook, blogs, etc.) to get our message across. We make it easy for people to follow all these channels in one RSS feed anywhere they or you want to view or share it.
• Facebook Connect/Open Graph & Twitter: Your members and supporters can share their WeGov activity (ex. relevent news, bill comments, votes, donations, supported causes/campaigns, etc.) with all of their Facebook friends and Twitter followers and invite them to join WeGov to support both your groups and other causes, without ever leaving the WeGov site.
• Email: We offer you the ability to send unlimited email to your members based on various attributes and geograpy. Think action alerts and inviting people to campaign and/or event fundraisers.
• Petitions: Create petitions with the ability to only let registered voters sign and/or differentiate between registered and non-registered voters using robust reporting tools.
• Legislation: Aggregated legislation from BOTH the federal and state level. That’s right, we have data from all 50 states.
• Associate bills: Tell your members what legislation you care about and let them take action and indicate their support right on your WeGov page. This support will then be aggregated and shared with their elected representatives.
• Letter Writing Tool: A legislative interns worst nightmare. We know it’s an important tool in an advocacy toolbox. We built it, we monitor it, and it’s free. Members can send form letters to their representatives; this can also be used as a widget in on your own webpage or just link to it as a landing page.
