Fight to end poverty by addressing housing, nutrition, health, education, and unjust taxation.

RESULTS is a movement of passionate, committed, everyday people. Together we use our
voices to influence political decisions that will bring an end to poverty.
We have a legacy of over 35 years advocating for the kind of public policy that will help put
extreme poverty in the history books, and we're looking for new advocates in the West Virginia
area!

Are you interested in:
* Meeting face to face with members of Congress
* Writing pieces for the media
* Writing letters and making phone calls to decision makers
* Hosting community education events and calling on others in the community to take
action to end Global poverty?

Then RESULTS might just be the home for you! Check out www.results.org or contact Anne Child at childanne@gmail.com. We'll give you some basic information on what we do and how
we do it. Check us out - we may just be the changemakers you've been looking for!

Mission Statement

RESULTS is a movement of passionate, committed everyday people. Together they use their voices to influence political decisions that will bring an end to poverty. RESULTS Oak Ridge is working with elected officials from Tennessee to use their influence to impact policy.

Description

Volunteers receive training, support, and inspiration to become skilled advocates. In time, volunteers learn to effectively advise policy makers, guiding them towards decisions that improve access to education, health, and economic opportunity.

With every hour of their time, volunteers multiply their impact through the enormous power of advocacy - whether it’s helping change policy to support millions of families putting food on the table or helping raise billions of dollars for the world’s most vulnerable children.

Backed by the in-depth research and legislative expertise of staff, RESULTS advocates realize the incredible power they possess to use their voices to change the world.

Our Structure:

RESULTS Educational Fund, a nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization:

  • Performs cutting-edge research and oversight.
  • Educates and mobilizes the public, policy makers, and the media.
  • Supports powerful citizenship by training volunteers in public speaking, generating media, and educating their communities and elected officials on issues of poverty.

RESULTS, Inc., a nonprofit, grassroots advocacy 501(c)(4) organization:

  • Pushes for specific policies and legislation to address poverty.
  • Empowers people to become powerful voices for the end of poverty through grassroots advocacy.
