Every year CCDP contributes to the NCDP Sustaining Fund to cover services provided to the county by the state party.

From NCDP:

Your efforts to help us meet the 2021 Sustaining Fund goals are critical to our efforts. Thank you to those counties that consistently meet their goal and to those who will make an extra effort in 2021. The Sustaining Fund truly lives up to its name because it is the money that keeps our party functioning.

A brief list of some of the services provided to county parties by these funds are:

• Provide VoteBuilder to County Parties 
• Maintenance and Updating of Party’s Website
• Organize and Conduct Training For Party Officers and Activists
• Develop Literature On Democratic Issues and Message 

This program gives the party the ability build a grassroots organization, disseminate
information, recruit and train candidates, employ staff and volunteers, maintain a voter file, support and advise Democratic elected officials and party officers at all
levels.  

Chatham stands out as a blue county that turns out our voters.  In 2020 we lead the state again!

Your financial support is a key part of our success. When you donate to CCDP, we are able to keep doing the work to elect Democrats up and down the ballot.

Our 2021 goal is $45,000 so that we can overcome the challenges ahead.

While Governor Cooper won and Democrats in Chatham won, we do not have a majority in the State Legislature.

Voter ID is now the law. We must inform and assist voters so that all have a valid ID. There is a movement to restrict voting by mail and early voting that we must address.

Maintaining turnout in the midterm 2022 elections will require resources and volunteer support. CCDP will continue to focus on voter education and turnout.  We will put the Blue Ballot and information about candidates and voting in the hands of our Chatham voters.

If you prefer to mail us your donation, please use this form and send it to CCDP, PO Box 1118, Pittsboro, NC 27312.

Thank you.

Thank you for supporting the Chatham County Democratic Party and our Unity Breakfast!

Perhaps the most important part of getting involved with your Democratic party is voting in every election.  After that you can do much more to help elect candidates and keep people aware of our issues and values.  Donating your time and money wins elections. How much of either you commit it up to you!

Do You Want to Engage and Have Impact on Local, State and National Government?

We want you but there are a few things you need to think about as we start to collaborate on taking back our country. 

Consider:

1. How much time, over what period can I invest?  There are opportunities for everyone to participate in a way that works for all.
2. What level of involvement do I seek (leadership team, committee member, regular volunteer, periodic volunteer etc.)
3. What skills do I have that I want contribute as a volunteer?

We are working on preparing for 2020 and we need folks to help.  Join one of CCDP's teams to address specific areas of work.  We need folks to be part of these leadership teams and we need regular volunteers.  

If you are interested in one of the teams listed please look at the team descriptions and Sign up to be a team member or team volunteer here. You may alternatively fill out this interest form.  It can be emailed to our volunteer coordinator or mailed to the CCCP office.
