A different kind of campaign…
We are not interested in drawing large sums of money away from our community to run this campaign. In fact, we want to use this campaign to put more money where it’s needed most – into the hands of Durhamites who serve this community day in and day out. That’s why this campaign will be all about service, relationship building, and mutual aid. If you can help us cover the costs of running, great. If that feels difficult right now, no problem at all – join us for an event, connect with a local nonprofit, and most importantly, come have a meaningful conversation with Chelsea and your neighbors about the Durham you want to see.
transparent campaign finance
We are being intentional about how this campaign’s money is raised and spent. Outside of standard operating costs, the bulk of our expenditures will go directly to benefiting Durham. At the end of our campaign, all excess funds will be donated to local non-profits.
Volunteer focused
We are dreaming of building a large enough coalition of volunteers so we can focus on door knocking and conversations Instead of blasting out a bunch of impersonal mailers. We want to help Durham learn more about Chelsea’s vision and also hear about your hopes for Durham.
Community Events
Our campaign events will center the people and organizations in the community that are already doing the work. Come out, give back, and help us strengthen the things that make Durham so amazing.
