This is just day one, and we’re already feeling the immense energy at the DNC. Team Emerge is gearing up for a week filled with supporting Democratic women running for office up and down the ballot in 2024. Our strong momentum is only possible because of your ongoing support, and we’re grateful to be here at the center of Democratic politics.

Election Day is fast-approaching and we need your support to ensure we have the resources to kick off recruitment season strong? Let’s find the next Kamala Harris together!

More soon,

Team Emerge

Iâ€™m thrilled to have you join us as we build a movement focused on affordable housing, equitable communities, and the political power needed to turn our vision into a reality. As organizers, our role is to empower people like you to be leaders in your own communities. Together, weâ€™ll work on having impactful conversations with your neighbors, growing our movement from the grassroots, and bringing more people into this process to win elections and effect real change. Our focus on housing is clear: we aim to overcome the obstacles to creating large-scale communities similar to Habitat for Humanityâ€”communities that give people a stake in where they live and a path to sustainable, affordable homeownership. These challenges wonâ€™t be easy to overcome, but with the strength of a united community, weâ€™re unstoppable. Every Friday, weâ€™ll host an online happy hour event to come together informally, share updates on our accomplishments for the week, discuss our plans for the week ahead, and celebrate our community's spirit and dedication.
