DeedsFest

Borrowing our name from our suffragette foremothers' motto,Deeds Not Wordsis the feminist platform for the 21st century. We provide thetools everyday activists needto make change in their communities, from sample letters for legislators to toolkits for taking action. Most importantly, we're a community where changemakers can learn about and share advice on how to combat income inequality and sexual assault, or improve reproductive rights and family leave.
