Past Events

Since we began in late 2006, Democrats Work has helped mobilize thousands of blue-shirted Democratic volunteers at over 200 community service events across the country. Together, we have have contributed over 10,000 hours of service and more than $28,000 to local food banks. Check out the map below to see what we have done. Don’t see your neighborhood on there?
