The League of Women Voters of Westford is a nonpartisan, grassroots organization of people of all genders, ages, and backgrounds. The League’s goals are to encourage active and informed participation in government, increase understanding of major public policy issues, and influence public policy through education and advocacy.
The League of Women Voters of Westford is once again offering scholarships to civically engaged graduating seniors at Westford Academy and Nashoba Valley Technical High School. Each school’s recipient must demonstrate active participation in government, engagement with citizens on major public policy issues, and/or an influence on public policy through education and advocacy.
You can support the scholarship with your donation Here. Be sure to note during the checkout process that the donation is for the scholarship fund, and thank-you!

After careful monitoring and analysis, LWVUS has decided that now is the time to sound the alarm: our country is in a full-on constitutional crisis. The foundational principles that have sustained our democracy — checks and balances, the rule of law, free and fair elections — are under direct and sustained attack.
LWVUS has declared a constitutional crisis along with its intention to launch an 8.5 million-strong initiative, called Unite & Rise 8.5. Read the press release here.
Unite and Rise 8.5 will showcase the many ways voters can drive change, including through advocacy, mobilization, civic education, and engagement. The initiative is part of LWV’s Women Defend Democracy campaign.
