Get ready to vote!

As a member of ninety-nine girlfriends, you get to vote for our Impact Awards. Your vote matters, and we want to make it easy (and fun) to get informed before you cast your ballot.

• Meet the Finalists Together: On Thursday, October 9, Girlfriends across Portland will host Meet the Finalists watch parties. These gatherings are a great chance to connect with Girlfriends while streaming the finalist videos. These parties are always popular, so register early!

• Your Voter Toolkit: That same day, you’ll receive an email with two key resources including the Meet the Finalists Playlist. You can watch it on your own if you can’t make a party.                                                                                      Furthermore, you'll receive the Official Voters Guide. The guide is packed with finalist websites, facts, and statements from our grant review teams about why these organizations rose to the top.

• Mark Your Calendar: Voting opens the evening of October 9 and closes just before midnight on October 19. Make sure to set aside time to review, reflect, and cast your ballot.
