SUMMARY:March Membership Phonebank
DESCRIPTION:Putting the social back into Socialism. \nOur February Membership Phonebank was a raging success! Multiple members signed up\, and we had a great community experience. Shout out to Wren for providing the pizza! \nBut our chapter still has many lapsed members. That means lots of people once signed up for DSA and for whatever reason are no longer contributing dues. DSA is entirely funded by member dues\, if we wanna do cool stuff we need as many members contributing as possible. \nIts very common dues lapse not intentionally but because someone signed up for a “Yearly Dues” and it never renews. These are great people to reconnect with and plug back into the movement for Socialism. Join us if you love talking to people\, are trying to build the org\, or looking to get out of your comfort zone a little bit! \nWhat: Membership Phone Bank\nDate: March 1st\, 2025\nTime: 12PM – 2PM\nLocation: 2302 Zanker Rd\, San Jose CA 95112
