This Saturday marked the kick-off event for Democrats Work! in Georgia.
Democrats Work is a new national organization that mobilizes Democrats to perform community service- as Democrats. Democrats Work partners with Democratic organizations to help connect Democrats with visible, tangible service projects in their communities such as cleaning up parks and neighborhoods, working at food banks, building houses, sponsoring basketball tournaments, and helping at church bake sales. Through this service-based approach, Democrats Work aims to promote and energize the Democratic brand at the local level, showing our neighbors that Democrats work hard to improve their communities every day, not just at election time.
More on Saturday's clean-up efforts in Sunday's AJC.
