Our democracy has been corrupted by a two-party system that serves moneyed interests, leaving the people to choose between the lesser of two evils. So, important issues continue to go unaddressed. Whether you’re concerned about the climate, privacy, inequality, or our individual freedoms, all are blocked by dysfunctional politics. A majority of eligible voters (over 130M Americans), including more than 50% of Millennials and Gen Z, feel like the two-party system isn’t representing them. Good Party is building free, open-source tools to marshal the creative community and mobilize digital natives to vote differently. Our technology and movement will help independent, grassroots candidates from across the political spectrum have a real chance of running and winning elections, for the first time in modern history! Good Party is founded by serial entrepreneur, Farhad Mohit (farhadmohit.com), with over $1B in exits — Flipagram (now TikTok), Shopzilla, and BizRate. If you're talented, passionate about democracy and looking to get in on the ground floor of something that could truly change the world for good, ping us: hi@goodparty.org Check us out at www.goodparty.org and on TikTok @goodparty

Through the Democracy Project and events like Bridge-Builder Breakfasts, political summits and timely policy discussions, BPC is fostering an ongoing conversation about how to overcome political divides and help make our government work better.
