ELITE Change: ELITE Change, Inc. has a long-standing history with Lyft, helping them to navigate the local legislative process, working with legislators and regulatory agencies across the city in order to achieve the goal of operating in the Houston market.

Result: After much debate from policymakers on whether cities or the state should be responsible for regulating companies like Lyft, a bill to regulate Lyft statewide passed the Texas Senate. Through its work, the Elite Change team was able to help Lyft develop new relationships statewide and get the company one step closer to statewide regulation.

ELITE Change:The ELITE Change, Inc. team deployed to several states with the goal of establishing voter engagement plans. We successfully executed trainings and accountability measures to increase African American voter turnout in key swing states during the 2008, 2012, and 2016 National elections. Additionally, we executed our digital plan, connecting and engaging in new technology. In the updated digital plan, the EC team sent out numerous targeted e-blasts in the form on fundraising asks, encouraging thousands of people to make a donation to the NVF. We also re-developed the NVF website to provide the campaign with the greatest level of opportunity to raise funds on a national level. By interweaving the new website with the existing Facebook page and Twitter account, the avenues in which people can contribute to the campaign have increased exponentially.

Result: As a result, we have successfully opened an e-channel of communication with voters, established an online fundraising presence, acquired new online voters, and cultivated and re-solicited existing and new online donors.
