MAKE A DIFFERENCE


Donations help us fund our annual operating budget.

Expenses like tools for maintaining our membership rolls are covered through our membership dues.  Also membership fees help us pay for web hosting, content management tools, licenses and subscriptions. The largest portion of our donations goes to the advocacy and research organizations that our monthly program speakers represent.

OUR COMMITMENT


While times have changed, our commitment to Boulder County and the citizens of Colorado has never wavered. By providing education,  fostering engagement and electing Democrats, we’ve kept participatory democracy strong and responsive to community needs.

Under its by-laws as a 501(c)(4) organization, DWBC is organized to  promote community responsibility and to encourage active participation in  social welfare issues. We fulfill this mission in the following ways:

DWBC: Our Parent Organization – By law, this entity is allowed to support 501(c)(4) groups, issues committees,  ballot issues, political organizations, and legislative efforts. We can collect  membership dues and donations but they are NOT tax deductible.

Small Donor Committee (SDC), Our Political Arm – In accordance with our charter, our member organization supports this committee via dues that are transferred from the DWBC parent organization. By law we are allowed to contribute to candidates, political parties and political committees via the SDC. Every time a member joins DWBC or renews their membership, $50 from their fees is transferred to the SDC. Recipients of recent donations include the League of Women Voters, Center for Voter Information and NewERA Colorado.

Stay The Course With Us – In this time of uncertainty around many issues like the pandemic, climate crisis, voting rights, gun violence, reproductive rights,  sexuality and gender identity, DWBC continues to put the needs of our  local community first. You are needed more than ever!
