Help Advocate for Change
One action alert
Problem
E-Champions are the Campaign for Tobacco-Free Kids dedicated online activists. To fight Big Tobacco at every level we must have a massive army of these activists in place and ready to act on a moment’s notice. Sending Action Alerts to our E-Champions network is the fastest way to reach tens of thousands of supporters and advocates when an urgent tobacco control issue arises.
The Gift
Your donation can send an Action Alert to a network of more than 120,000 E-Champions. E-Champions respond to Action Alerts by reaching out to elected officials and advocating on behalf of the public health community. They take action on a variety of local, state and federal issues by writing letters to the editor of their local paper, participating in virtual protests and call-in days, petitioning legislators, volunteering to host or attend rallies and events, and recruiting new members. Targeted outreach to our E-Champions is instrumental to the Campaign’s legislative action and plays an important role in influencing opinion leaders. In addition, communications to our online activists strengthen our relationships with individuals and our partner organizations, and give us the ability to motivate and engage our base of supporters.
