Community Impact
Swing Left launched in January of 2017 as an informational resource where people could find their nearest congressional swing district. Our site received 200,000 visits in the first 24 hours—and hasn't stopped growing since. Whether you join a Swing Left group, donate to a strategic fund, sign up for a volunteer shift, or just help spread the word, we’re so grateful for your role in this powerful community.

Our Values
Constructive action
We believe that action towards a goal is the antidote to anger and despair. Our entire community is brought together by a focus on what we can all do to effect positive change in the near and long term.
Community
We value collaboration and effective teamwork. We know progress is more sustainable when the work is done with others. We’re committed to being generous and helpful at every level of our community, from our staff, to our volunteers and donors, to the progressive movement as a whole.
Diversity, equity, and inclusivity
We work towards fostering a diverse, equitable, and inclusive culture and a greater sense of belonging. We recognize that this work does not have a finish line and requires daily, active effort across our community, from the individual team member and volunteer to the organization itself.
Effectiveness
We help people make better decisions about how to spend limited time, effort, and resources to help Democrats win. We prioritize impact today and impact tomorrow, ensuring that our team, community, and campaigns have the internal and external resources they need to succeed, now and sustainably over the long haul.
