The nonprofit Our Time announced it will cease operations as of today, Wednesday, August 19, 2026, in Manhattan, New York City. The organization, known for its grassroots support of Zohran Mamdani's political agenda, said it is ending its activities.
Our Time was formed to provide community‑based backing for Mamdani's campaign and policy initiatives across New York City. Over its existence, the group coordinated volunteer efforts, organized events, and mobilized supporters to advance the candidate's platform.
The decision to close comes after a period of sustained activity supporting Mamdani's agenda. While the organization did not disclose specific reasons for the shutdown, its statement emphasized a transition for its supporters.
Mamdani's supporters have been encouraged to continue engagement through other channels. The closure does not affect Mamdani's ongoing political work, which remains active in the city.
The winding down of Our Time marks the end of a grassroots effort that has been part of the city's political landscape. Observers note that the nonprofit's role in rallying volunteers and shaping policy discussions will be missed by those who participated.
The organization’s office was located in Manhattan, where it managed day‑to‑day operations and coordinated its volunteer network. Staff and volunteers are expected to receive final communications in the coming weeks.
