 In an election year as competitive as 2020 will be, we need to be preparing a field operation capable of beating Donald Trump right now -- waiting until the general election will simply be too late. That's why I couldn't be more excited to serve as the Chief Program Officer for Organizing Corps 2020, the DNC's groundbreaking new organizing initiative. Organizing Corps 2020 is a first-of-its-kind program designed to recruit, train, and pay young people in preparation for the 2020 election. We're focusing on recruiting organizers to work in some of our country's most critical battleground states, including Arizona, Florida, Georgia, Michigan, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin -- states where Trump won in 2016, and where Democrats need to succeed in 2020 in order to win back the White House. Democrats know that programs like Organizing Corps 2020 are crucial to our path to victory next year and beyond, but if we don't fully fund programs like this they just won't be successful. That's why I'm asking supporters like you for your help: Can you donate $3 to help recruit, train, and pay our future generation of organizers and help Democrats win back the White House next year? I worked my first job as a field organizer on Barack Obama's 2008 presidential campaign -- so when I say that organizers are some of the most important members of a campaign, I mean it. Organizers are the ones working on the ground to build the grassroots momentum needed to win an election and build lasting infrastructure. One of the things I'm most proud of about Organizing Corps 2020 is that we're actively recruiting students who reflect the diversity of our country, especially those who are from communities that are underrepresented in our democracy -- because we know that including a diverse set of voices in our campaigns makes us stronger, and makes Democrats more likely to succeed. It costs about $10,000 to put a single organizer through this program, and we're still short of being fully funded. I know that's a lot of money, but the skills and experiences these organizers will gain through Organizing Corps 2020 won't disappear after the election. In fact, investing in a diverse bench of young, Democratic talent will pay dividends in the years and elections to come. Can you make a $3 donation today to support a young organizer through Organizing Corps 2020 and help elect Democrats up and down the ballot next year? Thanks so much for supporting our program and the future of the Democratic Party, Jonae Jonae Wartel Chief Program Officer Organizing Corps 2020 |
