Problem it Solves
How do I build a large digital list and program across a distributed area for both fundraising and volunteer recruitment without a lot of staff on the ground?
Use Case
If you don’t have a lot of staff on the ground but do have a large member base, you can easily send out event information and track RSVPs from one centralized location.
Biggest Drawback
The volunteer CRM portion of the tool is not robust enough to use on a statewide program (for instance, you can’t mark if someone actually completed an event or not-just if they ever signed up).
Does it Sync with NGPVAN?
Yes, Action Network events can be synced to VAN events, although each one must be done manually.

Republicans have spent decades cultivating talent and investing for the long run, and right now we’re paying the price. Republicans control 30 state legislatures, 28 governors mansions, and are just a few seats away from regaining control of Congress. Together with an activist Supreme Court, they’re enacting policies that turn back progress on everything from abortion to voting rights to climate change.
Arena is building a new generation of political leaders who will lead the fight to save our democracy and build progressive power for the long run. It’s going to take all of us to make change. Join us in this work.
