HOW CAN YOU HELP?

We do most of our ongoing work through our committees:

• Events: volunteers help choose topics, connect with speakers, and manage event logistics 

• Fundraising: volunteers come up with clever appeals and help signal boost our campaigns 

• Communications: volunteers help with messaging and graphic design, increasing our online presence, and connecting with local media

• Voter Outreach & GOTV: volunteers work to elect Dems inside and outside DC through post carding, letter writing, text and phone banking, and canvassing 

• Dems Care: we organize or participate in community service projects, like the Great Ward 6 Spring Clean, Ward 6 Mutual Aid's Back to School Bash, planting projects with Guerrilla Gardeners, food drives for the Capital Area Food Bank, and Hill Family Biking rides, quarterly. 

One of the best ways to find out about one-off volunteer opportunities is through our newsletter, which comes out every other week on Monday. Newsletter items are also added to our website under “News.”

​

Our biggest current need is for a new chair for our Voter Outreach & GOTV committee. That person leads our voter ed efforts here in DC, helping out with candidate forums and motivating Ward 6 Dems to come out and vote in the primary and general elections, and outside DC, leading our robust postcarding program and working with other Dem groups inside and outside DC on text banking, phone banking, and canvassing efforts to elect Dems on the national level.
