Generation 44 All-Star Fundraising Events
Gen44 is a concept founded from Generation Obama (GO) and the DNC TrailBlazers, and is co-founded by the founder of the Law School Democrats of America, David Burd. Building on this strong record of achievement, the DNC merged these critical programs to establish Gen44. Since 2008, Gen44 has worked to harness the energy and excitement of the Presidential election by cultivating the next generation of fundraisers. Gen 44 works to maintain the passion of those young Americans who worked so diligently to elect President Obama and help them to engage their networks and colleagues in support of the President and the Democratic Party.
President Obama’s 50th Birthday is on August 4, 2011. There will be Obama Victory Fund 2012 events all across the country on Wednesday, August 3rd so that all supporters will have an opportunity to celebrate with him. The President only turns 50 once, so it will be a night to remember! Gen44 young professionals, including many attorneys, will be playing a large part in making all of these events successful. We want you to get involved!
