Be Part of RootsCamp: Open Call for Partnerships
RootsCamp is fast approaching, and we’re thrilled to invite you to join us as a partner for this year’s transformative event. Taking place February 6-8, 2025, at the Maritime Training Center (MITAGS) near BWI Airport in Linthicum Heights, MD, RootsCamp is a space where progressive changemakers come together to reflect, strategize, and build the movement for a brighter future.
We’re calling on organizations across the progressive spectrum to partner with us and help shape RootsCamp. We can ensure the event reflects our communities' diversity, energy, and innovation.
What Does Partnership Mean?
Partnerships are at the heart of what makes RootsCamp unique. As a partner, your organization will play a pivotal role in:
Shaping Event Content: Help guide the topics and sessions that address our movement's most critical issues and opportunities.
Recruiting Partners and Participants: Bring others into this collaborative space by inviting organizations and individuals to attend and contribute.
Upholding Vision and Values: Maintain RootsCamp’s commitment to equity, inclusion, and grassroots empowerment.
Representing Diverse Communities: Share expertise, perspectives, and experiences to ensure that RootsCamp reflects the breadth of our progressive movement.
Who Can Be a Partner?
Partnerships are open to any organization that shares our values and is committed to advancing progressive change. Financial sponsorship is not required to become a partner, but we also welcome sponsors to help cover event costs. Sponsorships enable us to:
Waive fees and provide scholarships for attendees who otherwise couldn’t afford to join us.
Ensure RootsCamp remains accessible to as many people as possible.
For individuals who aren’t part of an organization, you can still contribute by joining our organizing committees to help plan and shape the event.
Why Partner With RootsCamp?
RootsCamp is a space for action and innovation. This year, we’ll focus on:
Reflecting on the 2024 elections—what worked, what didn’t, and how we can grow as a movement.
Exploring strategies and priorities for progressive policymaking in the years to come.
Sharing ideas, best practices, and experiences builds a stronger, more connected movement.
Uplifting, learning from, and affirming the diverse voices within our communities.
As a partner, you’ll help drive these conversations and connect with leaders and changemakers across the progressive landscape.
