Problem Statement

Due to their organic nature, activists groups are often disorganized and take significant effort to plan rallies or protests. Furthermore it is sometimes difficult for interested activists as potential recruits to find an event that fits their cause of choice. Without a common medium for like-minded activists, current events must be organized haphazardly with existing tools through social networks Most people don't consider themselves activists, but every once in a while an issue will pop up that will motivate a given person to seek out a change. These people may not know how to contact their representatives, and if they get frustrated they might give up.

Proposed Solution

A centralized medium for activist to find events that best fit their preferred causesquick and easy website that allows users to find and contact their representatives with minimum effort.
