Friends,

A few weeks back we asked you to send notes of encouragement to our alums — and some of the responses we received were too good not to share.

Michelle captured what so many of us here at Emerge are feeling in this final stretch:

“We are ever so grateful that you see fit to pick up the torch and run for us. Sending you the energy of fortitude for the good fight. Thank you for representing us.”

Laurie had some words of wisdom for folks who are feeling burnt out by 2020:

“Hang in there. COVID campaigning is a slog, but our communities need us!”

Kerah had a note for our alums who might feel like their energy is dwindling in these final days:
“You got this, sisters! We're all in this together!”

And finally, Valerie shared a sentiment that we couldn’t be more excited by as we look to November 3rd and beyond:

“Thank you all for making a difference. You are inspiring! The future is Emerge-ing and SHE is AMAZING!”

To everyone who took a moment to sign a card and leave a note for our alums — thank you! Even virtually, I can feel the energy and enthusiasm coming from alums across the country.

As A’shanti mentioned earlier this week, in just a few days we’re facing our final end-of-month deadline before the election. If you’re able, please make a contribution today to ensure we don’t fall short. [link removed]

This email was sent to [email protected]. Emerge is a national organization working to recruit, train, and get Democratic women elected across the country, and we are so grateful to have you on our team. Our alums are strong voices for Democratic values — and they are working to bring their values up and down the ballot to fight for working families. They are fighting for critical issues that affect our communities like the environment, accessible and affordable healthcare, social justice and education equity. We need more alums fighting for us across the country.

Email is the best way for us to keep you informed about what’s happening with our work. You may notice that we send a lot of emails asking for your support⁠—that’s because we win when everyone does what they can to help. Our organization depends on thousands of actual people who care about our democracy and want to see positive change in our communities and across our country by building power through investing in Democratic women.
