Budget Advocacy

Budget Advocacy

Last year, SF Rising was proud to help convene a People’s Budget Coalition to fight for the resources our communities need to thrive. Although we experienced great loss, we won back $30 million of the proposed $120 million cut. 2025’s budget cycle may be even harder as our city faces a nearly $900 million budget deficit. We are ready to continue the fight for funding for programs that help lift up our communities. Sign up to volunteer with us to help us win a People’s Budget.

We engage students through voter registration, campus events, and through our Student Power Fellowship. We envision a future where everyone who wants to, can go to the higher education institution of their choosing without financial barriers standing in the way. If you're interested in joining our student organizing work, sign up to be a volunteer today!

Sign up for our updates to stay in the loop about upcoming actions and mobilizations.
