Have a direct voice in shaping democracy by joining one of our committees.
Committees are crucial to our clubs’ operations and making our vision for a better Orange County - and America - a reality. Joining a committee is a great way to get involved and get to know your fellow Democrats. Yes, it’s some extra work, but it’s rewarding...(and did we mention fun?)
Candidate Support
The Candidate Support committee is responsible for organizing neighborhood canvassing events and training. They are the bold ones, or maybe they just like a little exercise with fellow Dems on a Saturday morning! Canvassing is crucial to communicating directly with voters on the issues, building down-ballot candidate awareness, and making sure they vote! We make it easy by providing you with expert training and pairing you with and experienced canvasser. As the election nears, we will all need to join this committee so better to grab your spot early, practice your elevator speech and break in your walking shoes now!
Community events
The community events committee provides a DWSOC presence at community events such as festivals, car shows, and other events open to the public. They are on the front lines helping with important activities like voter registration and club participation. They make sure the community knows there is a vibrant Democratic Party in South Orange County and encourages the community to get involved and get out the vote!
Fundraising
The Fundraising committee puts the “fun” into FUNdraising by coordinating events such as donation campaigns - like Defend our Democracy - and manages the sustaining membership drive. They come up with novel ways to solicit donations from individuals and organizations to support club efforts on behalf of local Democratic candidates!
Membership
The Membership committee is responsible for getting new members and ensuring that our membership continues to grow and thrive. They participate in community events, like the Farmers’ Market to sign up new members. They communicate with and welcome new members into our club and they manage our annual membership drive to ensure that every one of our treasured members not just renews but also spreads the word to their friends and family that DWSOC is a vehicle for change in South Orange County!
Scholarships
The Scholarships Committee started in 2018 with the mission of building a Democratic Party presence with our young democrats in the local public high schools. They manage all aspects of the program including fundraising specifically for the high school scholarships program, develop, promote and score applications and build awareness of the program in the community. Awards range from $500 - $1,000 per student!
Voter Registration
Our voter registration committee works in conjunction with our community events and membership committees to get out the vote! They are everywhere from fiestas, festivals, farmers’ markets and more. The Voter Registration committee trains our members on how to register voters, and coordinates volunteer efforts to attend community events, sign up voters and tell everyone they see, “Don’t forget to vote.”
Young Dems
The Young Dems Committee focuses on making sure young democrats have a voice in the Democratic process and they help encourage our newest Democratic members to join us at club events. The Young Dems committee does everything from helping to volunteer at events, to being the headliner at our events! They are a powerful force, bring a unique voice and demonstrate the action we all need to take to protect our democracy and our community!
