a session on any of the following topics:



• Government 101 - Learn how the federal, state and local government works.

Voting 101 - Know the basics of voting, including important deadlines, finding what’s on the ballot, and the ins and outs of voter registration.

• How Philly Works - Walk through our brand new guide about the workings of city government.
• Poll Worker Recruitment - Learn the basics of working the polls in Pennsylvania. It is perfect for a first-time poll worker or an experienced poll worker who wants to brush up on their knowledge.

We'd love to hear about and even feature your events! Please send a short description and picture, if available, to our Program Manager, Tanisha Bezue.

“By partnering with Seventy, we had a clear plan of communication around the election with our 10,000 email subscribers and advocates. It was really useful for us to have graphics, email templates, external information, and logistics. And I know that our audiences were really excited to receive those things. I was also personally inspired to register to be a poll worker. So, I volunteered as a poll worker on Election Day, because of the information I received from Committee of Seventy.” —Kate Huffman, 2022 Director of Development, Philadelphia Cultural Alliance

Interested in other

volunteer opportunities?

In addition to opportunities for Pennsylvanians to serve on Election Day as poll workers, there are also opportunities for those who can't commit to the long hours required on Election Day. Some counties need help with their post-election canvassing of mail and absentee ballots. Under current law, this process begins at 7 a.m. on Election Day, but it's likely counties are more willing and able to consider much shorter shifts for the people who would want to do this job. Responsibilities include opening ballot envelopes, removing the ballot from the inner envelope, unfolding and flattening ballots, scanning ballots or serving as runners to move batches between stations.

To find out if your county needs help with post-election canvassing, please contact your local Board of Elections.
