One Last Fundraiser


By Juanita - Posted on 30 September 2008

doorhanger front We are having one last major fundraiser to gather the money needed for some first-class Get Out The Vote doorhangers.

We need some additional funds to purchase these and get them to our Neighborhood Organizers to use for blockwalking. We will also be putting them out in heavily Democratic precincts.

Your help could turn the tide for Democrats in Fort Bend County, and across Texas!

We decided to have a different kind of fundraiser - no speeches or grandstanding, just good food and live music. We will also have some outstanding door prizes - including a framed rally sign certified as being used on the convention floor in Denver. What a legacy to hand down to your grandchildren! With attendance limited to 100 people, your odds of winning a doorprize is good.

We will also have one-of-a-kind auction items for you to bid on.

door prize

This is the back of the doorhanger we want to purchase. It includes our local candidates and how to vote a straight ticket. Our campaign theme of, "Obama, we've got your back!" is carried out on this doorhanger designed to give Obama the Democrats he needs to get his back.

NOTE: The door-hanger was designed using the talents of grassroots volunteers and not professional political consultants... thus saving design fees, only cost will be printing. Our Volunteers are The Best!
