Let voters and supporters know about events and make it easy for them to sign up. Use the free SignMeUp app to share event details and collect RSVPs.
Organizing community events, phone banks, fundraisers and canvassing drives is challenging. How can event details be easily shared online, flyers and signs? How can volunteers quickly find out about upcoming events and sign up for them? How can this be done with little money, time and staff?
Free, innovative technology is an equalizer for grassroots groups fighting the establishment for change. The SignMeUp was designed by DemLabs in a few hours using the Glide platform which already has thousands of users. SignMeUp does not require any software to be installed and can be used from a phone, tablet or laptop computer with this link https://eventsignup.glideapp.io/


Fast, simple and free
Grassroots groups and nonprofits struggle with fundraising, limited time and few technical resources. This solution was designed by Melisse Leib, a DemLabs volunteer with these constraints in mind. EventSignUp is easy to use and groups with some technical skills can easily design their own apps with Glide for free as well.
