In partnership with the Wisconsin Council of Churches, Wisconsin Faith Voices for Justice  faith coco-leads the WI Interfaith Voter Engagement Campaign (WIVEC). This non-partisan campaign organizes faith communities around the state to engage in voter education, voter registration, and Get Out the Vote. We advocate for voting rights and fair maps.

In these difficult times, it is vital that we do all we can to ensure that every eligible person in Wisconsin is able to exercise their right to vote! 

We partner with voting rights organizations across the state.  In this video, Eileen Newcomer, Voter Education Manager for the League of Women Voters of Wisconsin, talks about the value of bringing the faith voice to this important work.

We need your help to grow this work around the state. With your support, we can hire local organizers around the state, increase our capacity to recruit and train canvassers to go out into low-voter turnout areas to get people registered and out to vote, and recruit more clergy to be poll chaplains on election day to keep the atmosphere peaceful and support voters as they wait to vote.

Mojica is excited to engage with our faith communities to advance our justice agenda. As director of development, he will lead all aspects of our fundraising, from foundation grants to major donor cultivation to donor management at all levels of giving.  

“The first time I met Bill, I was impressed with his energy, his passion for his work, and his deep commitment to helping us to grow and have the financial stability we need to realize our mission of social and economic justice and interfaith community building. I am looking forward to working with him,” said ​WFVJ Executive Director Rabbi Bonnie Margulis.
