Volunteer With the League

Volunteer with the League of Women Voters of St. Paul 

The League of Women Voters of St. Paul is powered by its members who believe in strengthening democracy and empowering voters. Our members give their time and skills to make sure our community has access to fair elections, informed discussions, and opportunities for civic engagement. 

To volunteer with LWVSP, you must first become a member. Membership opens the door to meaningful opportunities to contribute, learn, and lead. 

Once you’re a member, here are some of the ways you can get involved: 

Program Planning Committee 

Identify topics, speakers, and locations for events, create marketing materials, coordinate details with presenters, and help promote programs to the public. Every contribution—big or small—helps make our events a success.

Voter Service Committee 

Join the heart of our mission: voter engagement, registration, and education. Help organize candidate forums and voter education efforts.

Youth Vote Team 

Encourage the next generation of voters by helping register high school and college students.

Phone Duty 

Cover the LWVSP phone line for one month—less than an hour of your time. A simple but important way to stay connected with our community.
