FAQ
Is this legit?
Yes. P.S. Vote is a nonprofit project of Vote Rev Action Fund. You make a postcard with your photo, pick friends who could use a reminder, and we print and mail a real card to each of them. That's it.
Does it cost anything?
No. Printing and postage are free, courtesy of our donors. We will never ask you for money.
What happens to my friends' info?
You just type a friend's name. We find their mailing address using public voter registration records, so you don't need to know it. We use it only to mail your postcard. We never sell it, share it for anything else, or use it for commercial purposes.
What if my photo isn't great?
Any casual selfie works. Friends just want to see it's really you. A photo that shows your face in good light is best. A real person reviews every photo before printing, and we won't send cards with photos or names that are sexual, obscene, or show illegal activity.
When will the postcards arrive?
We mail cards by Oct 15 so they arrive before Election Day, Tuesday, November 3. That's right when people are deciding how and when to vote.
Do I get a postcard too?
Yes! Everyone who sends postcards also gets one of their own.
What do you use my photo and info for?
Your photo is printed on the postcards you send, and shared only as needed with our printing and mailing vendors. We use your information to send the postcards, run this program, and as required by law. It is not sold or used for commercial purposes. See our privacy policy for details.
How does the sweepstakes work?
Everyone who sends postcards can enter to win [PRIZE TBD]. Leave your email or mobile number when you send your postcards, or use the free entry form (no postcards needed). See the official rules.
Who is Vote Rev Action Fund?
Vote Rev Action Fund designs, field tests, and quickly mainstreams civic engagement innovations with and for nonprofits that amplify the power of historically disenfranchised communities.
