A Little Help From Our Friends

Today Campaign 101 sent out the following update to our friends across Virginia:

Student Campaign Training Needs Your Help

Campaign 101, a grasroots political training workshop for high school and college students, needs your help.


Bad News/Good News

Campaign 101 suffered a setback earlier this month when our original sponsors withdrew.

We've been asking our friends for help so we can continue Campaign 101 on our own, and the Virginia Young Democrats have stepped up as a major sponsor.

With the VYD's support, Campaign 101 is going forward as scheduled on July 10 and 11, with some minor changes and improvements. But, with less than a month to go, and a lot of work to do, we are writing to ask you to help us make our goal come true of training Virginia students in progressive grassroots campaign skills.
