The DPCCC FUNraiser Auction is open for bidding!

Link – bit.ly/2021FUNraiser

Many of our members have donated items, ranging from treasured memorabilia to a chance to get back out in the world on a vacation or just enjoy a meal on a leisurely afternoon in a lovely backyard! And wine, so much wine…..

Our Democratic elected officeholders have created opportunities for those social outings we’ve all missed –

Sharing a coffee or a meal in a restaurant with a host guaranteed to provide interesting conversation,

A champagne brunch after a hike and a wine tasting at a top-notch winery!

Or, join a small group in an outdoor home setting to relax, watch a movie and learn a few things.

And much more – check out the website! Link – bit.ly/2021FUNraiser

The funds raised will help the DPCCC recruit, support and promote Democratic candidates as we head into the 2022 mid-terms. And right now, we’ll be joining the fight to Stop the Recall!

It’s not too late to donate items, contact Marilynn Schuyler at 703-675-8782 or Schuyler@SchuylerAAP.com to make arrangements for collection.

And it’s never too late to make a cash donation to the 2022 Campaign Unity Fund at this link. https://secure.actblue.com/donate/2022campaignunityfund

A final thought -The Auction Committee wants to emphasize how grateful we are for the many creative, thoughtful donations to this year’s fundraiser. Take note bidders – the best thank you is to bid high!

2021 DPCCC FUNraiser Auction (May 14-23)

Posted on behalf of Auction Chair Marilynn Schuyler:

Dear DPCCC Friends:

Last year’s auction was a great success, thanks to all of you.  It was so much fun, that we are doing it again!

The 2021 DPCCC FUNraiser Auction will run May 14-23, but before we begin, we need donations (see below) and volunteers to help deliver items at the close of the auction.

We will be accepting auction items through April 30.  

We welcome any donation that will fit in an envelope – gift certificates, posters, etc.  We will also accept books, bottles of wine & spirits, and other items that would be of interest to our community.  Other ideas include:

  • Vacation home rental
  • Homemade meal or dessert delivery
  • Boat ride on the Delta
  • Meal or Coffee with Elected Officials
  • A basket of items donated by a group (i.e. Marsh Creek Dems)
  • Airline or hotel points
  • Political Memorabilia 
  • Certificate for computer assistance, home repair, item assembly, or any other skill you have to offer
  • Anything else that you can be provided in certificate form (i.e. donated restaurant or activity certificate)

Please keep in mind that the opening bid on donated items will be set at half of the value of the item, and bidding often stops below the value of the item.

To donate an item(s), please contact Marilynn Schuyler at 703-675-8782 or Schuyler@SchuylerAAP.com to make arrangements for collection.  Please don’t hesitate to contact Marilynn with any questions regarding potential auction item(s).

Finally if you don’t wish to participate in the auction but would like to make a contribution to the DPCCC 2022 Campaign Unity Fund, the ActBlue link is: https://secure.actblue.com/donate/2022campaignunityfund
The funds raised will be used to expand our efforts to ensure DEMOCRAT VICTORIES in our 2022 local and county elections!! Consider this as an investment in your Community, State and this Country!!
