Members and Friends of the Mecklenburg Young Republicans,

I cannot say enough words of thanks to everyone who attended our Christmas Party last Thursday. An especially big thanks to everyone who came and brought supplies to help our homeless neighbors. The effect that those supplies will have during the Christmas season are immeasurable. 

This year we have had a unbelievable amount of success. We increased our club membership over 200%. We increased our cash on hand 600%. We worked to elect Dan Bishop to Congress, re-elect Tariq Bokhari and Ed Driggs to Charlotte City Council, and defeat the unnecessary arts tax. But we have so much more to do. 

2020 will be a monumental year for our country, state, and community. It is more vital than ever that we coalesce and work together to keep conservative values like freedom and opportunity alive in our urban centers. Only together will we be successful. We hope to see you soon and remember the reason for the season: For Unto Us Is Born A Savior. Merry Christmas all and see you next year. 

"From everyone who has been given much, much will be required; and from the one who has been entrusted with much, even more will be expected."
Luke 12:48

Your Chairman,
Larry Shaheen Jr.
