We’re canvassing as the REAL People’s Organizing Collective, and we’re going where real community power lives, with our local storefronts and small businesses. Meet us as we talk to small businesses, build relationships, and share our the vision for our next campaign. And because organizing is about joy too, we’ll gather for a 5PM happy hour (on us!)

FAQs

• What are we talking to small businesses about? We’ll share the top priorities that emerged from our No Oakland Without Us Report. From storefront vacancies, affordability, permitting, public safety and investments in co-op support, we’ll ask storefronts which issues do they care about most?
• Can I bring a friend? Absolutely! Bring three friends! All are welcome at our canvasses and no experience is required.
