Members of the Newark community:

Thank you for your support of the College Democrats in the fall. When we first set out on our main goals for the fall semester many of our ideas sounded great only in principle. It always seemed as if we would never be able to accomplish everything that we had planned and felt as though we were limited by our own financial constraints. We knew that to truly mobilize University of Delaware students we would need the support of a strong community.

Our community partnership has quadrupled the size of the College Democrats membership from the start of the year and has allowed us to have a greater presence on campus. We now have more resources, stronger relationships with other campus organizations and greater credibility with the administration. As College Democrats, our continually strong financial position will ensure that our Democratic Party has a voice at UD.

It was an honor for us to work with the community throughout the campaign and we thank the many generous donors who responded to our call for action.

Paul Ruiz, President
