I integrated the Google Civics API to identify supporters’ elected representatives and automate toolkit donations — letting anyone sponsor or send multilingual educational toolkits directly to officials or to themselves, streamlining engagement between supporters and policymakers worldwide.
Bridging Supporters and Policymakers
Wanting to reach your representatives and actually doing it are very different things — most people don’t know who represents them, let alone how to get educational material into their hands. The task was to make that automatic: find the reps, and let supporters fund and send toolkits in a click.
The Educational Toolkit
The multilingual educational toolkit supporters can sponsor and send to their representatives.

The Impact
A working bridge between supporters and policymakers — Google Civics API finding representatives, and an automated donation flow sending multilingual educational toolkits to officials or supporters, worldwide.
Make Civic Action One Click
Engagement dies in friction. Wiring the Civics API to an automated toolkit-donation flow turned “I should contact my representative” into a single action — and put the coalition’s education directly into policymakers’ hands.
