In uncertain times, many people feel disconnected from their country’s democratic future. Purpose-driven groups—nonprofits, campaigns, and schools—know that boosting participation starts with personal connection.
Door-knocking and phone calls still matter, but now, tech is making it easier. Canvassing apps are changing the game, helping teams reach the right people, track conversations, and stay organised. Canvassing efforts in 2025 are still about people, but they’re also faster, smarter, and more effective.
