This Working Poor Couple Needs Your Help to Elect Bernie Sanders!

I posted this on DailyKos as well.... I want as many people to know as possible! My wife and I are students, we are members of the working poor, and we are part of a great, grassroots movement to elect Bernie Sanders!!!

“As the polls tighten in Iowa, and Bernie extends his lead in New Hampshire, I have finally convinced my wife to travel with me to the Hawkeye State and volunteer on behalf of the Sanders campaign. We are both college students at the University of Delaware. We, like many of you, believe in the message that Bernie has been advocating for since well before I was born.

Our plan is to leave from Delaware the Thursday before the caucuses and stay wherever the campaign needs us most. Of course, times are tough, and rent is high. For this reason we have started a GoFundMe campaign to help defray some of the costs. Regardless of this campaign, we will be heading to Iowa to help elect the next President of the United States.

If you’re feeling the Bern, feel free to chip in! Otherwise, please make a donation directly to Bernie’s campaign on our behalf!

Thanks in advance!!!”
