This fall MASSPIRG at UMass-Dartmouth registered nearly 1,700 students vote and defended their right to vote on Election Day. We raised over $500 for Hurricane Sandy victims, collected hundreds of cans and warm clothes for the needy, represented students' need for public transportation at public hearings, educated the public about toy safety, and lobbied to close expensive corporate tax loopholes. 

This semester, we collected over 1,200 public comments in support of upholding the ban on building new trash incinerators in Massachusetts, created an after-school program partnership with Alma del Mar Charter School in New Bedford to educate elementary school students about energy efficiency, and held a roundtable on public transportation issues in the South Coast.
