COMMUNITY-LED CAMPAIGNS
COMMUNITY-POWERED PETITIONS & CAMPAIGNS WITH STRATEGIC IMPACT
At Lobby for Good, we don't chase every issue, we choose the ones that will move the needle. By applying strategic pressure where it counts, and backing campaigns with real community power, we focus on what can shift systems, not just make noise.
PRINCIPLE 1
Strategic Community Impact
We back issues that matter to everyday people and give us leverage to shift the system. If it affects your daily life and creates a chance for real change, we’re in.
PRINCIPLE 2
Uniting People, Not Parties
The best solutions are the ones most people can get behind, no matter who they vote for. We focus on campaigns that bring people together and put pressure where it counts, because that’s how change actually happens.
PRINCIPLE 3
Under-Represented Issues
Not everyone gets a seat at the table, especially those with the most at stake. We shine a light on the issues being ignored and use strategy to force them onto the agenda, where they can’t be brushed aside.
PRINCIPLE 4
Big Impact, Long Game
We don’t do band-aids. We’re here to fix what’s broken, not just for now, but for the next generation. Our campaigns aim for deep, lasting change that makes life better for everyone.
THE PEOPLE'S ADVOCATE
We shine a light on public decisions that don't pass the sniff test.
WHAT WE'RE DOING RIGHT NOW:
STRATEGIC INVESTIGATIONS
We don’t just ask questions, we follow the paper trail. When a deal looks off, we dig into the documents, connect the dots, and expose how power is really being used, and who benefits. If something doesn’t add up, we make sure the public sees what’s been hidden.
PRESSURE THAT SHIFTS OUTCOMES
We don’t just raise awareness, we make noise that matters. Through targeted media campaigns, public advocacy, and organised community pressure, we force issues into the spotlight and onto the desks of decision-makers who can no longer ignore them.
REBALANCING WHO GETS HEARD
We work to flip the power dynamic. While corporate lobbyists and wealthy individuals whisper behind closed doors, we bring communities to the table and sometimes kick the door down. We push for independent investigations, real transparency, and decision-making that includes the people who live with the consequences.
WHAT WE COULD DO WITH MORE BACKING:
REACTIVATE COMMUNITY-POWERED PETITIONS
(Currently On Hold)
We’ve built the infrastructure to run high-impact, community-led petitions, not just to collect names, but to shift pressure points and trigger real responses. But without sustainable funding, we can’t keep this tool active for every campaign. With the right backing, we can scale it up and turn public support into strategic leverage.
SPONSOR INVESTIGATIONS THAT SHAKE THE SYSTEM
(Currently On Hold)
We’ve identified key issues sitting in the dark, deals that don’t pass the sniff test, decisions made without scrutiny. But investigations take time, legal advice, and resources. With more support, we can dig deeper, faster, and bring buried truths to light before the next bad decision gets locked in.
FUND PEOPLE-POWERED LOBBYING & LEGAL ACTION (Currently Limited)
Corporate lobbyists and wealthy individuals have unlimited access and deep pockets. The public doesn’t, unless we build it together. We’re already proving what’s possible with crowdfunded lobbying and targeted legal action. But right now, we are extremely limited on the cases we can take at a time. With more backing, we could take on more, fight harder, and push for reforms that actually stick.
YOUR SUPPORT IS WHAT TIPS THE SCALES
Without public backing, the system stays rigged. With it, we shift power.
Every dollar helps us:
✔ Uncover what’s hidden — so the truth comes out before it’s too late.
✔ Hold power to account — so shady deals and broken promises don’t fly under the radar.
✔ Reboot paused tools like petitions and campaign sponsorship — so community voices can move decisions.
✔ Fuel independent lobbying — to counter the influence of corporate insiders.
✔ Take legal action when it counts — because sometimes, the only move left is to fight.
We’re not short on issues. We’re short on firepower.
If you’ve ever thought, “Someone should do something about this” that someone is you. And with your support, we can go further, faster.

Together, we can shift the system, and make public power work for the public again.
COMMON QUESTIONS
How are the funds from the community-powered campaigns allocated and utilised?
As a social enterprise here is a guide to how we allocate funds:
70% directly funds the campaign, including resources, materials, and activities that are crucial for our campaign.
20% covers operational costs to keep us running smoothly and efficiently.
10% is set aside for future projects and innovation, ensuring we can continue to support important causes.
How do you decide which community campaigns to take on?
We evaluate campaigns based on two main criteria:
Your campaign should have a strong base of support, with the possibility at achieving at least 10,000 signatures for national issues and 5,000 signatures for local issues.
Your campaign must align with our principles of community impact, bipartisan potential, highlighting underrepresented issues, and aiming for positive outcomes.
What happens if a campaign is overfunded?
While this hasn’t happened yet, any extra funds from a campaign would go toward future community campaigns that align with our mission and need financial support.
Can Lobby for Good support a petition I started on another site?
If your petition has gained significant support, we’re happy to review it. Petitions with a high signature count and a clear alignment with our values are more likely to be considered for action.
I am passionate about one of your campaigns, how can I pitch in to make a difference?
If you feel strongly about one of our campaigns, there are lots of ways to pitch in! Spread the word on social media, share it with friends and family, volunteer with us, or even host an event to build support.
