Democrats Abroad Guadalajara gives a hearty thanks to everyone who participated in our February 6th fundraiser. Your generous support will go a long way in helping us with our mission to Get Out the Vote to the more than 1.5 million U.S. citizens living in Mexico! Special thanks to our fundraising chair, Michaele Rivera, who organized a lovely evening in the home of Eva Petocz and José Maria Rancaño. Thank you, Eva and José for the use of your beautiful home! Dax, French cuisine, provided delicious appetizers accompanied by their elegant service. Their restaurant can be found on Ave. Rúben Darío 293. Check them out! And, we want to give a shout out to the musical duet, "Sambless" who provided us with beautiful tunes from the Americas. Thank you, Jessica and Orlando! For those of you who donated and attended, we not only raised money to help with this year´s expenses in promoting the right to vote from abroad, but also saw our community mobilizing for the hard work ahead. Let´s continue to get the word out that we are looking for your active participation in all of our upcoming efforts. Visit www.democratsabroad.org to learn more about how you can help. Even a few hours a month of active participation will go a long ways to getting a Democrat elected in the November 2020 elections!
