Holiday Events and More

Thanks to everyone who attended our Holiday Party on Dec. 12!

Hi Fellow Democrats, Thanks to everyone who attended our Holiday Party on Friday, Dec. 12 (photos here). It was a tremendous night with more than 85 elected officials and candidates in attendance. Among an inspiring line-up of speakers, we heard from five candidates for US Senate, as well as the next Lt. Governor of Illinois, Christian Mitchell.   We're also incredibly grateful to our sponsors (listed below) and the fantastic volunteers and staff who helped pull off such an incredible event. Most importantly, the evening raise funds for our efforts to elect Democrats up and down the ballot across DuPage County in 2026.   Please learn more below about the effort to build the Native American Cultural & Environmental Center (NACEC) in DuPage and consider a donation to that effort this holiday season. Finally, I'm very excited to announce that our 2026 Gala keynote speaker is David Hogg! The Gala is Sunday, Feb. 22 at Drury Lane in Oakbrook Terrace. Gala tickets are now on sale. Please spread the word, because we're going to try to fill 1,100 seats. Happy Holidays!
