THANK YOU FOR YOUR DONATION!

As the Student Organizer, Emma works to recruit and manage student volunteers and interns, and also build community among our student members. She started with For the Many as a fundraiser her freshman year in college, and continued to become more and more involved each semester as she quickly realized the importance and urgency of grassroots organizing work. She’s incredibly excited for this full-circle moment to work with students and help facilitate their personal growth and political consciousness, just as she experienced when first introduced to our work. 

In her free time, Emma loves to hike, explore the beautiful Hudson Valley, cook meals for her loved ones, and teach and practice yoga!

Jenna is the Ulster County Community Organizer at For the Many. Her interest in progressive social action was nurtured at Bard College, where she founded a coalition of students who lived off-campus to advocate for their rights as renters. She spends her free time cooking with friends, making pottery, and reading with her two cats. She believes that housing is a basic human right and that the power belongs to the people.

Dino organizes workers across the Hudson Valley. He was politically activated by Trump’s election and later Bernie’s 2020 campaign. After realizing the ways our system is rigged by the greedy few, he joined Atlanta DSA and became a field organizer for a 2020 Senate campaign in his home state of Georgia.The conversations he had with everyday people about their struggles to afford housing and healthcare made him realize how important it is to organize year-round, not just when there’s an election.

Dino spent most of 2022 organizing in Connecticut before joining us in Hudson Valley. Outside of work, Dino enjoys reading in cozy places, biking, hiking, and tutoring students.
