As part of US Youth Climate Strike's effort to expand its organizing efforts, I was tasked with the job of creating text and phone banking platforms for the organization. The organization only had the budgetary capacity for one paid tool, so the other one would have to be DIYed. I decided that a phone banking platform would be easier to create than a text banking platform. After some tinkering and research, I figured out a way to use Google Voice and Google Forms to make a free phone banking platform. I am attaching the Phone Banking guide so that you can get an idea of how it would work!
If you have any questions at all as always feel free to let me know! Always happy to help.
In solidarity,
Nico Gleason
