Nadine Shanti, who boldly leads League volunteers throughout Snohomish County, was recognized earlier this month by the city of Mountlake Terrace for her efforts to empower voters.
Chair of the Snohomish County League’s Community Outreach Committee, Shanti rallies parade walkers, engages bystanders in chanting and talks with community members about voting power.
As part of the city’s 2026 celebration of Black History Month, Shanti was among the Black women honored at a Feb. 5 ceremony for their leadership of students at Mountlake Terrace High School.
Shanti and Snohomish County League volunteers registered 88 voters at the high school in January and talked with more than 130 students about voting and registering.
In total in January, the volunteers visited nine high schools and spoke with more than 1,100 students.
The proclamation extended to Shanti read: “Nadine and the League are passionate about registering voters in high schools and ensuring young people are prepared to exercise their right to vote on election day.”
It continued: “Through voter outreach at our very own Mountlake Terrace High School - but also at four of our Everett School District High Schools as well as in Everett and Marysville, Nadine and the Community Outreach Committee have helped empower future voters and strengthen civic participation in our community.
“We are grateful for her leadership and the League’s continued commitment to democracy.”
