Citizens Project is helping people like you make Colorado Springs a better place to live through civic engagement, voter education, and local advocacy.
Since 1992, Citizens Project has empowered community members to fight for a city that is equitable, just, and inclusive. Whether you’re using our voter guides, attending one of our in-person sessions, or participating in our local watchdog committees, we’re here to support you!
At Citizens Project, we know that education leads to empowerment. We also know that governments work best when voters are informed, have access to elected leaders, and participate in shaping public policy. Citizens Project has at least two things in common with all of our supporters: a deep love for Colorado Springs, and the knowledge that no one can do it alone.
Your donation will ensure that your community members are heard at the ballot box. For every $2,5000 raised, Citizens Project will empower 7,500 voters in our city’s next election.
Fewer than 1 in 4 people turned out to vote in the most recent City Council election
“Citizens Project does vital work. I appreciate their focus on our local community and their nonpartisan education. They have provided me with the tools I need to feel knowledgeable and empower others in Colorado Springs to confidently engage in civic engagement.” — From an anonymous supporter survey
