Archive USAID History

The Center for Development History is building an oral history of USAID so we don’t lose our nation’s precious history to Trump’s lies. If you’re a USAID veteran willing to share your story, or a volunteer willing to help conduct interviews, visit this link.

Calling Congress

Want to express your concerns to Congress? Use our custom Senate call sheet with phone numbers and zip codes to call any member of the U.S. Senate. Remember, you can call any member you want, not just the ones who you vote for. Happy calling! (Here’s a helpful script you can use).

Graphic Design Support

In future editions of Organize DC, we’ll be including more resources for Organizers to start their own protests. We’re working to include a directory of pro-bono graphic designers so new protest organizers can have access to good-looking promotional materials. If you or someone you know is interested- email organizewashdc@gmail.com .
