The AGF Difference

Our innovative three-pronged approach brings together student leaders, campus administrators, and university resources to provide campus-specific support and enable long-term change on campus.

How it Works

Official Home on Campus

With each election cycle, voter engagement organizations appear and disappear on campus. In contrast, AGF enters into a contractual agreement with each college and university, thereby creating an enduring partnership. Our campus partners appoint an administrator, called an Andrew Goodman Campus Champion, to oversee the program. Together, Andrew Goodman Campus Champions and AGF staff work with Andrew Goodman Ambassadors to navigate the needs and requirements of each institution.

Building a Leadership Pipeline

The Andrew Goodman Ambassadorship is typically a three-year commitment. Students enter the program during their sophomore year and are encouraged to continue throughout their academic career. While in the program, Andrew Goodman Ambassadors develop strategic organizing skills and advocate for their community’s voting and civil rights. To support their work, students receive a stipend, activities budget, and ongoing mentorship, support, and training from AGF’s staff and network of social change leaders.

Voting is Just the Beginning

Andrew Goodman Vote Everywhere goes beyond voter registration. Our students become campus organizers who take action alongside their peers to awaken and encourage lifelong commitments to participatory democracy.

Program Partners

We’re housed on 66 campuses across the nation: large state universities, historically Black colleges and universities, community colleges, and everything in between.
