Democrats Work: Yes We Cans!


by: DemocratsWork

Tue Nov 18, 2008 at 03:16 PM CST

(This is incredible. Absolutely incredible. - promoted by Phillip Martin)

"This victory alone is not the change we seek. It is only the chance for us to make that change."
President-elect Barack Obama

Across the country, food banks are struggling to keep up with increased demand.  And with the holidays approaching, Democrats Work is doing something about it.  We need your help.

Today, we are launching the Yes We Cans Virtual Food Drive to help you donate to the food bank in your community.

In Texas we are helping the Regional East Texas Food Bank, Laredo Regional Food Bank, End Hunger Network-Houston, Wichita Falls Area Food Bank, Food Bank of Corpus Christi, Food Bank of Abilene, High Plains Food Bank, Harvest Texarkana, South Plains Food Bank, Capital Area Food Bank of Texas, Tarrant Area Food Bank, Food Bank of the Rio Grande Valley, San Antonio Food Bank, North Texas Food Bank, Houston Food Bank, and the West Texas Food Bank.

Serve with the General - Vote Now!


by: DemocratsWork

Thu May 22, 2008 at 02:58 PM CDT

Today, the WesPAC and Democrats Work communities launched a contest to determine which Congressional District General Wes Clark is going to visit this summer.


This won't be an ordinary visit.  General Clark will travel to one Congressional District where a Democratic challenger is fighting to change the direction of our country to work side-by-side with area Democrats to make a positive impact through community service.  We want you to tell us where we should put our values into action.  


You can cast your vote here: www.DemocratsWork.org.
