At Your Own Comfort Level
We get it. You want to do something to get our country back on track. Facebook rants aren't getting the job done. What can you do that makes a real, measurable difference?
The Troy Dems Club has the tools and connections to help you make an impact on Day One. Best of all, you don't need to leave your Comfort Zone, unless you want to. Whether you're a masterful letter writer, a person who loves to reach out by phone, or someone who wants to make your case face-to-face, we know candidates and causes that can use your help. Explore some of the opportunities available to you!
Write Letters to the Editor
Did you know that media outlets determine the direction of their coverage based on the letters they receive? Address issues that are important to you or a candidate. And work at your own pace.
Personalize Postcards
Adding a personal message to a candidate's postcard helps increase its impact. You can say it your way, or use a script, right from the comfort and safety of your own home.
Call Voters Directly
Research shows that when real people reach out, voters are more likely to remember the message. You'll be supplied with a list of Dem-leaning voters, a script and a bit of training. Texting works too!
Canvass Door-to-Door
Canvassing is just a fancy term for walking door-to-door in a neighborhood to acquaint residents with a candidate or cause. You'll get a script, a list of Dem-leaning voters and a lot of mentoring. It's a fun and rewarding way to get your steps in.
Run for Precinct Delegate
A Precinct Delegate represents the party's voters in a city's precinct, organizing outreach and attending Democratic events. It's an elected position and a great way to get involved in the Democratic Party. Inquire here for more information.
Join a City Board
Interested in historical buildings? City planning? Parks? Sustainable design? Nearly every department in the city government has a group of citizen volunteers on an advisory committee. Join and make your opinions matter.
