NationBuilder (NB) is the platform that hosts most Maryland League of Women Voters websites, as well as LWVMD's contact database and communications network. The main NB site, lwvmd.org or lwvmaryland.nationbuilder.com, is where our local and state Leagues maintain all member information and send e-blasts, as well as where the following local League websites are managed:

LWV of Anne Arundel County

lwvaacmd.org or aac-lwvmaryland.nationbuilder.com

LWV of Baltimore City

lwv-baltimorecity.org or baltcity-lwvmaryland.nationbuilder.com

LWV of Baltimore County

lwvbaltimorecounty.org or baltimoreco-lwvmaryland.nationbuilder.com

LWV of Calvert County

lwvcalvert.org or calvert-lwvmaryland.nationbuilder.com

LWV of Harford County

harford-lwvmaryland.nationbuilder.com

LWV of Howard County

lwvhowardmd.org or hoco-lwvmaryland.nationbuilder.com

LWV of Kent County

kent-lwvmaryland.nationbuilder.com

LWV of Queen Anne's County

lwvqac.org or qac2-lwvmaryland.nationbuilder.com

LWV of Washington County

Three local Leagues have NB websites through LWVMD that are called leader sites. They have a different web address and separate log in, but operate the same as the main site.

LWV of the Mid-Shore

lwvmidshore.org or lwvmaryland2.nationbuilder.com

LWV of Prince George's County

lwvpgcmd.org or lwvmaryland3.nationbuilder.com

LWV of St. Mary's County

smc-lwvmaryland3.nationbuilder.com

Two local Leagues maintain independent websites, not provided by LWVMD.

LWV of Frederick County 

my.lwv.org/maryland/frederick-county

LWV of Montgomery County

lwvmocomd.org

NOTE: If you have control panel permission through LWVMD, you can access your NB-hosted website by adding /login at the end of the website address.

To work in NB, you must have what we call "control panel access." Because the NB database contains private information, LWVMD requires control panel users to sign a confidentiality agreement. In addition, your League president must request the appropriate level of access on your behalf. LWVMD offers five levels of access:

Web Author - the most common access level that allows authoring web pages, membership maintenance and communication (sending email blasts); 

Treasurer - web author level plus access to financial transactions;

Admin2 - treasurer level plus access to website settings;

Staffer - web author level plus certain admin2 permissions and limited access to financial transactions;

Admin - the highest level of access (reserved for Online Services Committee members).

Step 1: Have your League president fill out and sign the request form asking that you be given control panel access. Click here to download* the access request form. The president then emails the completed form to [email protected]. The form has to come from your president but it does not have to be signed. If your president is not available, please contact [email protected] to arrange alternate authorization.

Step 2. The designated volunteer downloads and completes the confidentiality agreement. On the form the volunteer is referred to as the "Recipient." The volunteer/recipient's name and date go at the top of the first page and their name, local league role/title and signature go on the right-hand side at the bottom of the second page. Click here to download, fill out and sign the confidentiality agreement. A digital signature is acceptable or a photo or scan of the signed printed form. The volunteer/recipient returns the completed form to [email protected]. 

Step 3: Online Services notifies the volunteer when control panel access has been granted and offers assistance and training.

Please email [email protected] if you have questions or need any assistance.

*The fillable options will not work inside many browsers although the forms will display quite nicely, hence the caution to download the form so you can fill it out in a PDF compatible program.
