GPAD offices in Arlington Heights, ILGPAD Monthly Meeting: Working Meeting: Postcards, Parade Banners
Join us for a Working Meeting for GPAD Volunteers to write postcards to help reach voters for the April 1 local election, or to help make banners for GPAD's entry in the Durty St. Pat's Parade. The Mental Health Referendum campaign is asking for volunteers to write help write postcards to more than 2,000 mental health supporters. AND we'll be constructing new banners to carry in the St. Patrick's Day parade, which is Saturday, March 15. Come out and join us in our work to keep the Republican chaos and destruction of the federal government out of local government.
We will have food, fun, chocolate and music! The Mental Health Referendum campaign appreciates donations of postcard stamps to help reach Mental Health Supporters. And, you'll meet other Democratic and Progressive neighbors in Palatine Township while learning about issues facing our communities. Please sign up so we know you are coming!
