Our story
Youth Vote Collective started with one student asking a simple question: why is it so hard to register and vote?
Founded by Isabelle
Youth Vote Collective was founded in 2025 by Isabelle, a 16-year-old student in Los Angeles. Running voter registration drives at her school, she noticed something: her generation consumes a lot of political content, but not enough of them actually vote. The problem wasn't awareness — it was the gap between attention and action. So instead of giving out more information, she started asking for commitments. In three days she had 49 of them, across 10 high schools and 3 states. It hasn't stopped since.
Our mission
Youth Vote Collective exists to close the gap between attention and action — making it easy for high school students to pre-register to vote before they turn 18, so they show up already registered when it counts. We are nonpartisan and student-led. We don't advocate for any party, candidate, or ideology. We just build the systems that help our generation follow through.
