What can 5 bucks buy today? Maybe your favorite latte at CC's, a Po' Boy or even a cup of spicy gumbo at your favorite restaurant. Many times we don't think twice about pulling out an Abe Lincoln from our wallets for one of our favorite treats, but how about using 5 bucks to make an investment?
That investment is in the future of your Louisiana Democratic Party as we work hard to rebuild our network across the state's 64 parishes. What can we do with $5 you say, well a lot. As a grassroots organization a small investment from one becomes a small investment from 100 that becomes a large investment from 1000.
Will you make that $5 grassroots investment in your Democratic Party?
We know we have a lot of hard work ahead of us in Louisiana and we know we have a lot to prove. But in just the last month we launched a new communications and research program, revamped our social media, brought back the Louisiana Democrat newsletter, successfully recruited hundreds of Democratic qualifiers for Democratic State Central Committee (DSCC) and Democratic Parish Executive Committees (DPECs), increased our presence in communities across the state and retained our 45 seats in the Louisiana House of Representatives!
Here are a couple recent news articles about this hard work:
Democrats seeking to rebuild party
Louisiana Democrats look to rebuild grassroots base
Those two stories are just examples of the huge increase in positive media coverage the Louisiana Democratic Party has received in the last month from local TV news and newspapers. There's much more to come!
So will you make that $5 grassroots contribution to our rebuilding effort as we continue to work day and night strengthening your Democratic Party?
Your generous support will help the Louisiana Democratic Party to lay the foundation for long term success in our state and help us defeat extremist, yet vulnerable, GOP Congressmen like John Fleming in 2012.
Without your support we cannot accomplish our goals of turning Louisiana blue again, so can we count on your support in making a $5 investment in your party?
We will put every dollar of your generous donation to work immediately towards our rebuilding efforts, holding the GOP accountable and succeeding in 2012.
Thank you,
Renee Lapeyrolerie
