Hey John,

Happy Monday and May the Fourth be with you! I know there has been a lot going on, so I want to make sure you saw Michelle's email last week.  

Will we see you at our first ever online NAL happy hour tomorrow?

By joining, you'll have the chance to soak in the support of the NAL family, enjoy some laughs, and be in community with some of the leading #PeopleLikeUs—people like you—who are stepping up to keep our communities safe and healthy during this unprecedented time. 

So what are you waiting for? Grab your ticket, a drink, and get #ReadytoCheers with the NALpista family during our #GivingTuesdayNow happy hour!

See you there,

Eliot Sasaki
Creative Content Manager

P.S. Since it's May the Fourth, here's a GIF of Darth Vader and storm troopers dancing. We can promise our happy hour will be at least this awesome! 

John,

Between the devastating impact coronavirus has had on our communities, rising white nationalism, and Trump's hateful policies, we know it's been a difficult few months. And while it's going to take all of us working together to help our communities heal and rebuild, it's important that you take some time to pause, reflect, and soak in the support of our NAL community.

Luckily the NAL fam is here for you!

On Tuesday, May 5th at 6:00PM ET, you'll have the chance to join our first ever online NAL happy hour.

Hosted on #GivingTuesdayNow by the fabulous Raquel Castañeda-Lopez, Detroit City Councilwoman and NAL trainer and board member, and Eva Masadiego, NAL's National Director of Leadership Programs, you'll have the chance to join NALpistas from across the country to build community, enjoy some laughs, and recenter yourself in the values of hope, grit and inclusivity that drive our movement.  

By registering to attend, you'll also directly support New American Leaders on one of the biggest global giving days of the year as we work to create online trainings, setup remote one-on-one coaching, and provide policy support for New American elected officials. Our leadership is more important than ever before and we know that having people like us in office will help our communities rebuild after the pandemic and strengthen our democracy. Your support makes all of this possible.

So what are you waiting for? Grab your ticket and a drink and get #ReadytoCheers with the NAL Network! 

Can't wait to see you there,

Michelle Munjanattu
Development Manager
New American Leaders

P.S. Can't attend? Don't worry! You can still get a ticket and pass it along to another NALpista or donate directly to our #GivingTuesdayNow campaign!
