#investined

We are in the home stretch for Invest In Ed! With petitions having to be submitted by July 5, we need all hands on deck to get this on the ballot. Here are some ways you can help us make history this week. This post will be updated throughout the week with additional opportunities to help, so please check back every day!

Collect Signatures

It’s still not too late to collect signatures! On July 4, meet at the Sonic Drive In on Arizona Ave at 5:30 pm to get organized to help collect signatures at the City of Chandler July 4th celebration. Signatures will be collected until 7:00 or 8:00 pm, and a notary will be present to notarize other petitions, as well. Keep in mind that fireworks celebrations will be a great place to gather signatures no matter where you are, so if you’re attending a different celebration, consider bringing petitions with you!

If you are willing to help in this effort, please head over to the Arizona Education Association Headquarters in Phoenix during the following times (it will help tremendously if you bring your own personal laptop):

Sunday, July 1 – 10:00 am – 8:00 pm
Monday, July 2 – 7:00 am – 8:00 pm
