Mobilize supporters and gather petition signatures online with a form built for advocacy. Capture names, contact info, optional personal statements, and volunteer interest so you can turn signers into active participants in your campaign.
An online petition form is one of the most powerful tools in a community organizer's arsenal. Rather than standing outside with a clipboard, you can circulate a link through email, social media, and messaging apps — reaching people in your community and far beyond. Every signature comes with contact details so you can follow up, build your list, and keep momentum going long after the initial push.
What separates a great petition form from a generic one is the ability to surface real voices. An optional personal statement field lets supporters explain in their own words why the issue matters to them. These statements can be quoted in press releases, presented at city council meetings, or shared on social media to put a human face on the numbers. Meanwhile, a volunteer interest question transforms passive signers into active helpers — letting you identify who's willing to go beyond signing.
formformform makes it easy to launch a petition in minutes. Your form gets a shareable link you can post anywhere, every signature lands in your dashboard, and you get instant email notifications so you always know when momentum is building. There are no submission limits, no hidden fees, and no CAPTCHA to frustrate supporters.
