DONATE

β€œCan I afford it?” should not be the first question a potential candidate asks before deciding to run.

Our small town is facing big questions about affordable housing, adapting to climate change, whether to build new schools, and more. We need people of all kinds of backgrounds to step forward and participate in these much-needed conversations. Too often, people are dissuaded from running for office because they lack the depth of financial resources and networks to be a viable candidate. Well-funded individuals and interest groups have set a new standard for local campaigns that make running for office feel out of reach for everyday Capers. With your help, we can level the playing field.

When you donate to the Cape Dems, you are making a direct, grassroots contribution to candidates and voter education. Thank you!

We support Democratic candidates and registered Democrats representing democratic values.

WAYS TO GIVE

Your support helps us foster civic engagement at the grassroots level.

Where does the money go?

Our core mission is to support local candidates and improve voter turnout. Most of your donations will be used to help candidates run effective campaigns without having to finance it entirely themselves. With our help, we hope more people will feel empowered to run for office. Your support also enables us to host events and create tools (like this website!) that help get out the vote.
