$18,000 and Counting!

We have already amassed over $18,000 in pledges and donations from our members and friends for hiring a “Washington County Democratic Party Organizer.”

This is an amazing accomplishment by our group. We are over halfway to our goal with pledges still coming in. 

If you would like to contribute towards hiring our organizer, please send a check—made payable to the DPWC—to DPWC P.O. Box 355, West Bend, WI 53095 or make a contribution at the office and tag it as a contribution towards hiring an organizer.

If you have questions, please contact Tanya Lohr at telohr@charter.net or 414-467-8469.
