Canvassing – Every Weekend Until Election Day
We are canvassing EVERY WEEKEND until the election.
Unless otherwise specified, we meet at Headquarters – 700 Arendell St, Morehead City
Saturdays we meet at 10 AM and Sundays we meet at 2 PM.
Canvassing takes between 2 and 3 hours.
There are jobs for everyone – we need door knockers, drivers and volunteers to record results on their phone. No experience necessary!
Please consider giving it a go – it’s proven to be the most effective way to engage voters; also, once you do it, most really enjoy it!
Register here for any weekend! (We need help this weekend if you are available.)
Postcards to Swing States!
Postcards are back and packs are ready for writers to pick up at Headquarters! Mon-Fri 11a-3p
Bundle sizes: 100, 75, 50 and 25.
Stamp donations box at HQ: Give if you can, take if you need.
Fundraising reception for Congressman Don Davis – Saturday, September 26 – Cape Carteret
NC-1 may be one of the handful of races nationwide that determines which party controls Congress.
In 2024, Don Davis narrowly held this seat against Republican Laurie Buckhout. Since then, Republicans in Raleigh redrew the district lines again — gerrymandering NC-1 to make an already tough race even harder. This November, Davis and Buckhout face each other in a rematch, and the latest polling has them tied at 41% each, with 17% still undecided.
That’s not a bad number. That’s an opportunity. A race this close isn’t won in Washington — it’s won by neighbors showing up for neighbors, right here in Eastern North Carolina. Your support in the next few weeks could be the margin that keeps a strong, independent voice for our region in Congress.
EVENT DETAILS
Saturday, September 26, 2026
6:00 – 7:30 p.m.
Cape Carteret, NC (exact address emailed to confirmed guests 48 hours before)
Our Host Committee is still forming — and we’d love for you to be part of it, whether as a host, co-host, sponsor, supporter, ally, or simply a guest who shows up and stands with us.
CONTRIBUTION LEVELS
Host: $3,500
Co-Host: $2,500
Sponsor: $2,000
Supporter: $1,000
Ally: $500
Friend: $250
Guest: $100
Ticket: $75
We’re especially hoping to fill out our Host Committee — hosts, co-hosts, sponsors, supporters, and allies who can help lead this effort — along with as many supporters and guests as possible who can attend and show the strength of grassroots backing here at home.
REGISTER OR CONTRIBUTE:

Can’t attend, or live outside the district? It still matters. Every contribution — even $25 — helps us compete against outside money flowing into this race.
Please let me know if you’re interested in attending, helping organize the reception, or joining the Host Committee. Races this close are won by people willing to do a little more than the last time. I hope you’ll be one of them.

Giving Back to Our Community
August Community Service
Your assistance is requested to donate classroom sets of art supplies for the 2026/27 School Year. While traditional back-to-school drives do an incredible job of collecting notebooks, pencils, and backpacks, specialized art supplies are almost always left off these lists. Our local art teachers are tasked with fostering creativity on remarkably thin classroom budgets, often paying out-of-pocket for basic materials. This drive will directly support art programs across 19 local public schools from elementary through high school, including Tiller Charter School.
Click the poster to purchase and donate art supplies to Carteret County Public School Art programs before August 14th which will be sent to CCDP Headquarters.
You may also purchase and donate Michaels or Amazon gift cards. Donations of NEW art supplies may also be dropped off by 3pm Friday, August 14th at CCDP HQ during office hours 11-3 M-F at 700 Arendell Street.
