About WeVote
WeVote is a nonpartisan get-out-the-vote nonprofit startup and a celebrated Fast Forward nonprofit technology grantee. WeVote is a movement of over 180 passionate volunteers (starting with the founders) who are building open-source mobile technologies that touch and mobilize millions of voters on Election Day. We observe that many voters are busy, distracted, and impatient. We have a goal of providing a complete voting experience in 8 minutes, including the download of our app ("WeVote Ballot Guide, @WeVote"). More information is at WeVote.US. See Twitter @WeVote. We are a 100% volunteer and remote organization.
A bit more about the Fall 2026/27 Intern Cohort
We have a strong history of Internship cohorts (200+ interns over the past four years). We have built 8 teams of Interns, led by experienced professionals who have a strong connection to academia and our mission.

  • Alignment with WeVote's nonpartisan mission & values (shared in process)
  • Access to device/internet; we're open to discussing access needs

  • Direct impact on equitable voter access and information

Our Commitment to Inclusion & Accessibility
WeVote is fully volunteer-driven, and we are proud of our grassroots model. We welcome volunteers of all races, ethnicities, genders, sexual orientations, abilities, ages, income levels, and political perspectives-everyone committed to fair, accessible elections. Whether you're new or bring years of experience, there's a place for you. We know that unpaid roles present barriers. We offer flexible hours and encourage open discussion of needed accommodations for technology, time, or work style.
