What’s Happening?
On March 25th, PA Youth Vote’s Liza Meiris attended the Breaking the Glass Ceiling Women’s History Banquet at the Montgomery Roosevelt Campus of the Norristown Area School District ✨
This Women’s History Month event, planned by @cityyear , gave students the opportunity to connect with professionals from a variety of fields, ask questions, and gain advice about life, careers, and health 💬
Students were also able to explore resources from community organizations through a tabling experience, helping them discover opportunities and support available in their community.
We’re grateful to @cityyear for organizing such an inspiring event and for creating space to uplift and empower the next generation of leaders 🙌🏽

PYV Intern Vincent, with Liza & Tom, at the truly massive and awe-inspiring Philadelphia Election Warehouse, where sworn city workers use modern technology to receive, sort, open, flatten, scan, and count hundreds of thousands of mail ballots in a matter of hours. It was incredible to see how the City Commissioners and staff do all that with speed, accuracy and security, not to mention keeping 3700 voting machines in top working order and ready to roll out to Philly's 700 polling places!
