Hi there, It has been an incredible few months. In addition to hosting a fancy shindig, we've been hard at work making endorsements in DC, onboarding our new Regional Policy Director, and organizing fun ways for you to get involved and make a difference.
But first, a huge thank you to everyone who supported our Gala: we raised nearly $60,000! Check out photos from the event here.
If you couldn't make it, can't wait to see us again, or want to more actively support our work, keep reading to learn how to get involved. |
