Host a Recruitment Drive

Host a Back the Blue Appreciation Event

Host a Back the Blue Appreciation Event

At ACT for America strongly supports our men and women in blue. Police and law enforcement officials are laying it all on the line, day after day, to ensure the public is protected from threats both abroad, as well as within. We must be visible and vocal in our communities showing our support in backing the blue.

Host a 9/11 Memorial Event

Host a 9/11 Memorial Event

Not even two decades after 9/11 and it seems like America has forgotten about the terrorist attack that forever changed our country. In order to never forget, we must continue reminding people -- and the next generation -- about the imminent threat that terrorism still poses to our country.

Host a Movie Screening

Host a Movie Screening

Movie screenings can be used to not only educate ACT for America members, but to also present our issues to people who are unfamiliar with the work that our organization does. When hosting a movie screening, you want to make sure there is some sort of activism item people can do after the movie and that you are inviting new people.
