Example Follow-up Email to Local Study Abroad Program(follow up to phone call) |
Dear {name}, I wanted to follow up on our call the other day to explain more about our get out the vote outreach to study abroad programs. Working through VotefromAbroad.org, we offer non-partisan voter help – directly in your program – so you can provide your students the unique experience of voting abroad in this year’s elections. How it works:
On the date of the event, our volunteers will arrive 30 minutes early to get set up. They will bring a pop up vote from abroad banner, envelopes, and snacks (if agreed on) to help attract students. Please let me know if this action sounds interesting to you. Again, we want to be very clear that as this is a voter registration event it must be non-partisan. Thanks a lot for considering working with us. Any questions, please let me know! |

Example Introduction Email to Local Study Abroad Program |
Dear {name}, This November, your study abroad students from the United States will have a unique opportunity: voting in the 2018 US Midterm Elections, while living abroad. For many, it will be their first time voting and we want to help them feel comfortable and confident registering to vote and submitting their ballot. VotefromAbroad.org offers non-partisan voter registration and ballot request, so you can easily provide your students the unique experience of voting abroad in this year’s elections. The midterms are November 6th and ballots are sent out about 40 days before the election, so fall orientation is the prime time for students to register to vote. How it works:
One of the great advantages of Study Abroad is that students develop a new appreciation of American democracy, and why their right to vote is fundamental to that enterprise. We want to make sure their right to vote is not lost in the exciting and overwhelming transition to life abroad. Please let me know if this sounds interesting to you. Again, we want to be very clear that as this is voter registration it must be non-partisan. Thanks a lot for considering working with us. Any questions, please let me know! |
