Can you help?
ORGANIZING ANNUAL ORGANIZING
We are on a mission to grow our ranks. Annual Organizing is the biggest opportunities to bring in new volunteers. Click below for phone banks inviting our neighbors to this meeting. We would like to see big numbers of invites this year, and people will be looking for outlets to make a difference. If you are hesitant, contact us, and we will help you get started.
Get more involved.
Let us know if you are a member of any Affiliate, Non-Profit, Community, or Outreach organizations. We want to know what other organizations are doing, and ways we can support them!
It all begins with a spark. You may want to volunteer. You may want to get involved in your community. Whatever it is, the Leicester Democrats are here to help you make a difference in your community.
The Leicester Cluster is a welcoming community of local Democrats and left-leaning neighbors within the Buncombe County Democratic Party in North Carolina. Covering six precincts (52.1, 53.1, 63.1, 68.1, 681, and 69.1), we are passionate about building connections, amplifying local voices, and making a positive impact together.
Our monthly meetings are a chance to come together, share ideas, and plan grassroots activities that support Democratic values and initiatives. Whether you're looking to meet like-minded people, find meaningful ways to contribute, or simply explore how you can make a difference in your community, join us! This is a space where everyone’s voice matters.
