Summer fundraiser party to save Caltrain, BART and bus service for Peninsula communities and the Bay Area!
2026 is the most important year for Bay Area transit in recent memory. We need to pass the Connect Bay Area regional transit funding measure that will prevent devastating cuts to Caltrain and BART and transit across the Bay Area, fund major improvements to VTA and SamTrans.
Saving transit is essential for our housing and climate goals, and essential mobility for many people who depend on transit.
In support of the Connect Bay Area campaign, Seamless Bay Area & Transbay Coalition/Friends of Caltrain co-led a massive signature gathering effort to get the initiative on the November ballot. This was the largest mobilization of Bay Area transit riders in recent memory with more than 1,000 volunteers activated across the Bay Area who collected more than 77,000 signatures.
Now, we are preparing for the next phase of the campaign to win in November – and need your help. Come party it up while helping Seamless Bay Area & Transbay Coalition get the resources they need to sustain and scale up their organizing in Santa Clara and San Mateo conties and throughout the Bay Area! Funding enables our organizations to train up more volunteers, present to hundreds of organizations, reach more people through social media, and more.
The event will be in Palo Alto (exact Location upon RSVP).
Host Committee:
Owen Byrd, Evelyn Stivers, Natalie Geise, George Lu, Amie Ashton, Karen Grove, Gina Dalma, Angela Evans, Yoriko Kishimoto, Auros Harman
