Folks --

I'm almost ready to make one of the biggest announcements of this entire campaign: picking the woman who will serve as my running mate and the next Vice President of the United States.

I know that as soon as she joins the campaign, she'll want to hear directly from the grassroots supporters who have powered our campaign since Day 1. So I'd like to personally invite you to join me and my running mate for our first grassroots fundraiser together as the official Democratic ticket.

A donation of any amount via the buttons or link below -- even just $5 -- will secure your ticket to the event:

We'll be following up with everyone who RSVPs, and sending you the exact date, time, and all the other details once they're finalized, but I didn't want to wait on giving you the opportunity to reserve your spot at this historic event.

These grassroots fundraisers are one of my favorite parts of this campaign, and I'm especially excited for this one. I love talking directly with supporters like you about your hopes and dreams, the challenges you face, and what's at stake in this election.

And I can't wait to bring my running mate into that conversation, and introduce her to the supporters like you who have built this movement, and who will power us to victory in November.

Month after month, grassroots donations from supporters like you have made up nearly all of my campaign's donations, and I'm so proud of that fact. These contributions allow us to hire new organizers, expand our advertising, and build a campaign that will beat Trump on Election Day. Now, as we approach the home stretch of this campaign, I'll need your support more than ever for my campaign and Democrats down the ballot.

So I hope that you'll join me and my running mate for our upcoming grassroots fundraiser, by making your first donation to our campaign and Democrats up and down the ballot today. Anything you can give right now will reserve your spot -- and believe me, you won't want to miss it:

I'll get back to you on the time, the date, and yes, the running mate, but you should go ahead and get your ticket now before it fills up!

Thank you, for everything. I'm really looking forward to seeing you there.
