Marrakech Maxwell (they/them)
Bozeman, MT
Why do you love Forward Montana?
Montanans face many obstacles within governmental systems, and many people (especially young) feel disempowered while making change in their community. Forward MT provides spaces and structures for people to feel empowered and respected again in creating the future we want. We do this together.

Why do you love Forward Montana?
I love Forward Montana because they empower young people to make real change. They supported me in high school when I organized my first voter registration drive, and now as a board member, I’m excited to give back to an organization that’s all about uplifting youth voices. Plus, they have the best merch that makes civic engagement even more fun!
