Thanks to everyone who helped out or came down to the park to support our Bake Sale for Democracy. With the efforts of about 25 volunteers, and about 160 people who donated to the cause, we raised almost $870 for MoveOn PAC. This money will be used to help take back the White House. We also sold a number of T-shirts and stickers, raising $230 for our group and the SNOW Coalition.
