Volunteer Portal
Everyone in Massachusetts - no matter where we live - deserves clean drinking water and access to nature. This year, Massachusetts has an important opportunity to protect our rivers, lakes, forests, farms, and wildlife habitats - without raising taxes by voting Yes on 6! It’s time to invest in our future—clean water, healthy forests, more trails and parks, and access to the outdoors and nature for everyone.
Question 6 will be on the ballot in the November general election, and we need your help to engage voters across the Commonwealth to vote Yes on 6. It will be because of advocates across Massachusetts like you that we will win on November 3rd!
Please see below for all of our campaign’s volunteer resources that you need to get started. If you have any questions or concerns, please reach out to natureformassachusetts@gmail.com.
Ways to Get Involved
Phone and Text Banking Campaign
One of the most important ways we are engaging voters across the Commonwealth is through the Yes on 6 Phone and Text Banking Campaign, and your help is crucial to the success of this voter contact program!
In order to sign up for a specific phonebanking shift, please fill out this Yes on 6 Phone and Text Bank Volunteer Form.
Once you fill out this form, campaign staff will get in touch and provide you with the necessary training and materials before you begin speaking with voters.
Display a “Yes on 6” Lawn Sign
We are working with Mass Audubon and The Trustees to have lawn signs at a few of their sanctuaries and locations across the state! Volunteers and supporters can go to one of these locations to pick up a lawn sign during their normal open hours.
You can find a list of locations below, including hours of operation and phone numbers for each location. Please look at the hours of operation and call in advance, so our team knows to expect you! Quantities of lawn signs are limited, and we’re operating on a “first come, first serve” basis.
