How I If We works:

1. A goalpage proposes a way people can make a difference together.
2. The page enables you and others to pledge that "I will [take a specified action] if together, we can achieve the goal."
3. Until Goal 1 is reached, you donate only a token amount ($1/year).
4. After Goal 1 is reached, you donate what you pledged (monthly or yearly).
5. The project may next set a higher Goal 2 (which does not affect Goal 1 patrons).
6. This process repeats until the project is inspiring a coordinated crowd to provide the ongoing funding they need to thrive.

How I if We Vote works:

1. A community organization that wants to increase voter turnout sets an ambitious but achievable voter turnout goal for a specific election.
2. Its leaders reach out to the community and ask them to go to the organization's I if We page and pledge that "I will" vote "if" enough others also pledge that together "We can" reach the goal.
3. I if We shows the number of pledges, along with a list of who has pledged.
4. The organization reminds people to vote and to report on I if We that they've voted.
5. I if We shows the number of confirmed votes, along with a list of who voted.
