Contribute to BUILD the BLUE in 2022 and help support our local candidates!

Our party set an ambitious goal of raising $35,000 for our Build the Blue in 2022 Candidate Campaign fund! This fund will be used to help targeted campaigns and candidates running for local and regional elected positions this year, starting after the primary election!

Thanks to the Wine in the Garden event last summer, the Roosevelt-Kennedy Dinner in April and generous donations from the community, we'remore than halfway to our goal. We've raised over $20,000!  Please help us cross the finish line so we can make a real impact for the Midterm elections.

You can give directly for this effort through this Act Blue link:  https://secure.actblue.com/donate/jcdbb22
