Building Bridges for America Action Fund (c4)
2024 Programs
Over four million people don't vote where they live. An enlistee in the Navy from North Carolina can vote--from San Diego. An NC A&T student in Brazil this semester can vote too. But they probably won't--unless someone asks them. Building Bridges for America is going to ask.
