Since our inception, the League of Women Voters fought for voter access and participation and worked to ensure historically underrepresented communities’ voices are welcomed and heard throughout our democracy – all while maintaining our commitment to nonpartisanship and fostering an informed electorate. The leaders we elect make decisions that affect our daily lives. Elections are our chance to stand up for what matters most to us and to have an impact on the issues that affect us, our communities, our families and our future.  We make voting easier through varied voter education programs.Donations to the League of Women Voters Deschutes County, a 501(c)(3) corporation, are fully tax-deductible.
