But seriously, here&#8217;s the top reason: We can&#8217;t take for granted our successes in the election just past. \u201cCommunity organizing\u201d doesn&#8217;t cost a lot of money, but it costs some. We (and by we I mean you) can be the best hub for volunteer political action in the county (maybe the state?). This fundraiser and our monthly donors will make that possible.<\/p>\n<p>The ticket deadline looms.
