The Challenge
Current funding structures are largely top-down, and many local units (BPOUs) receive little direct financial support. This has made it difficult to plan, grow, and consistently engage at the community level.
At the same time, opposing organizations benefit from predictable, recurring revenue streams that support year-round organizing and outreach.
Our Solution
Local Republicans introduces a recurring donation model that:
- Keeps funds local
