The Membership Outreach Team

Sara Kasper discusses the benefits of becoming a Task Force member.

The Gifford Pinchot Task Force believes in the power of grassroots community organizing.

When united as members of the Task Force, individuals have a greater voice in important issues and the power to accomplish more work on the ground.  In order to bring this opportunity to as many people as possible, our Membership Outreach Team – a group of dedicated, passionate, professional representatives – works on public streets and from door to door linking like-minded people in their pursuit of our shared ideals.

Ali Clarys explains the work of the Task Force to a prospective member on Hawthorne Blvd.

When you see us in your favorite shopping district or at your door, we urge you to take advantage of this one-on-one connection to learn more about our organization and find out how you can get involved.
