What can I do today to make impact in the District of Change?

Vote – The Mystics and Monumental Sports and Entertainment have teamed up with League of Women Voters to make sure you are ready to vote in the 2024 presidential election and beyond!

Support DC Statehood – Did you know that the more than 712,000 residents of the District of Columbia have no Congressional vote? That means District of Columbia residents, who pay more in taxes than citizens in 22 states, have no control over local budgets and routinely experience interference in local laws, local funding and operations. Learn more about the movement for DC Statehood and add your support.

Support the Mystics Fund – Inspire the next generation. The Mystics Fund was created by the Washington Mystics and Monumental Sports & Entertainment Foundation specifically to support girls basketball initiatives. The Mystics Fund is a dedicated source of funding to help with the expansion of Mystics girls’ youth basketball efforts in the DMV including youth clinics, equipment donations, court refurbishments and more.
