For 105 years, the League of Women Voters has been a respected, activist, grassroots organization whose mission is “to empower voters and defend democracy.” The Santa Barbara League, which is 87 years old, registers voters, holds candidate forums, and explains ballot measures. We do not endorse candidates or political parties, but we take positions through study and consensus. Your gift allows us to continue “making democracy work” on the South Coast. When you invest in democracy, you are investing in a future where every voice counts.
