Join us for the Annual Awards Lunch!

Please join us on Sunday, November 21st at Sketchbook Brewing Co. (4901 Main Street, in Skokie) for DPOE’s annual awards fundraiser. (Yes, we will be gathering in person this year!) We will be serving lunch catered by Maggiano’s and honoring the hard work of Illinois Democrats fighting to deliver our progressive goals.

Our special guest speaker will be The Hon. Emanuel “Chris” Welch, Speaker of the Illinois House of Representatives, who will be receiving the Blue Donkey Award in recognition of his progressive leadership in the Democratic Party.  

Additional honorees include:

• Jack Darin, Director of the IL Sierra Club, Abner Mikva Award.
• Morris “Dino” Robinson, Founder Shorefront Legacy Center, Liz Tisdahl Community Service Award.
• Barb Cornew, Democratic Activist; Board member of DPOE, NTD, Democrats Abroad and NWPC, Ted Loda Volunteer Award.

This event is one of the most important events on the DPOE calendar, as it will help us fund all of our election activities for the 2022 election cycle. From voter education events to phone banks and canvasses, we will be working hard in the coming year to ensure that we elect and re-elect Democratic candidates up and down the ballot. Every race is important—from Senator to Governor to Secretary of State and Circuit Court Judges. Your support of our efforts is crucial to our success in getting out the vote for our local, state and national elections. Thank you for helping us win in 2022!!
