First Annual Democratic Men’s "Honor Democratic Heroes"
In 2007, the Wake County Democratic Men have set a goal of raising at least $2,500 to donate for Democratic Party election activities. To meet that goal, Wake Democratic Men are held the first annual "Honor Democratic Heroes" fundraiser. The process is simple:
For a donation of $25 or more, you can honor any Democrat, living or dead. The “Democratic hero” can be a current or former elected official in North Carolina or in national politics, or a grass roots Democrat. Heroes will be honored in the following ways:
• Heroes were honored in a ceremony at a special Democratic Men’s meeting on Monday, June 11, at 7 P.M. at the Goodwin House. Remarks were made about each “Hero”.
• Those honoring heroes may pass out written copies of their remarks at the meeting (Written comments are optional and may include the name of the person making the contribution. It is the responsibility of the person who wishes to pass out written comments to produce and make all copies. Comments should be in Microsoft Word, using Times New Roman font, size 12. A small picture of the hero(es) may be placed in the document).
• Copies of provided remarks will be collected and maintained in a notebook that will be kept at the Goodwin House and on display at future Democratic Men’s meetings. The written comments should be in Microsoft Word, Times New Roman font, size 12. It is the responsibility of the person providing the remarks to incorporate any photos in the document; only one photo per person being honored).
• Comments will be preserved on the Wake County Democratic Men’s website. (Submit comments to rcondrey@mindspring.com.)
• Additional heroes can be honored at subsequent Democratic Men’s monthly meetings. (Democratic Men’s meetings are the second Monday of each month. No meetings are held in July and December).
• Any Democrat, whether a member of the Wake County Democratic Men or not, may honor a “Democratic Hero”.
• There is no limit to the number of “Democratic Heroes” that an individual may honor. However, a contribution is requested for each “Democratic Hero.”
• Following is information on requested contributions:
o For a contribution of $100 or more, an individual may honor a “Democratic Hero” with remarks and written comments of up to one page. Several individuals may join together to honor a hero. Current or former elected officials may also honor up to 25 grass roots Democrats who assisted them in a campaign at this level in a one page listing. A group photo is optional.
o For a contribution of $50 - $99, an individual may honor a Democratic Hero” with brief remarks and a half page of written comments.
o For a contribution of $25 - $49, an individual may honor a Democratic Hero” by mentioning that individual’s name with very brief remarks and up to three sentences of written information.
