CBCAC Volunteer Appreciation Party and Celebration

On behalf of CBCAC and the Chinatown community I would like to thank all of you as well as the other volunteers who aren't on this page for coming out to help do GOTV work. This has been a long process and we've all experienced a lot of rejection, but we didn't give up. Now that the presidential elections are over that doesn't mean our work is done: there is still a lot of work to do because engaging the community is a long and tedious process that can't be done even in one long election cycle. But once again, thank you all! 

Please join us for the CBCAC volunteer appreciation party and celebration on December 1st from 12-4:30. We will have lunch, karaoke awards and prizes! Please spread the word to the other CBCAC volunteers you know. We currently don't have the venue so if you would like to help prepare for this party please email Xiaoxiao or myself!

Update

We registered 12 today, and CASL helped us register 50, so now we're at a total of 1133! Only 70 more before we reach our 1200 goal! Thank you CASL staff for your assistance as well as our Fellow, Interns and Volunteers!

Update

Our NADP Fellow XiaoXiao Liu registered 46 Curie High School Seniors and CASL staff registered 42 clients, bringing our total for today to 1022 registered voters! Let's keep up the good work. Thank you volunteers and thank you Chinese American Service League staff for all your hard work!

Today's update

XiaoXiao registered 29 people at Roosevelt University today, volunteers registered 3 in Chinatown, and I  registered 13 in DePaul tonight, bringing our current total to 933. We're keeping up the good work and please keep updated on our progress! Thank you volunteers! 

Voter registration at the AIDs walk

This Sunday at 8AM we will be registering voters at the museum campus. If you have time please stop by!

As of today we have a little more than 850 and that number is increasing. But our final goal is 1200 so we still have a ways to go. Please keep up the good work. Even if you don't have time to volunteer please spread the word and send any possible volunteers our way!

Voter Registration 09/22/12

Thanks to all who went to yesterday's voter registration workshop/practice!

Dream Relief Day Update

Hi everyone,

I just got back to CASL from the Dream Relief Day event at Navy Pier. Right now some of our other volunteers, interns and Theresa Ma are there helping out for different shifts. Please keep updated on the event through newscasters like this: http://chicago.cbslocal.com/2012/08/15/young-immigrants-head-to-navy-pier-for-help-getting-work-permits/

And it's not too late to volunteer! There are shifts from 7:30-12:30 and 12-6PM and even overnight! So if you have time just head over there and ask someone in a yellow ICIRR vest how you can sign in.

Voter Registration at the Navy Band Great Lakes "Liberty Call" Show Band Performance in Chinatown

What: Voter registration
Where: Chinatown Square (Where there is a stage and zodiac statues)
When: Saturday, August 18th, 5-7PM

Introduction

Hi All! 


We are CBCAC, the Coalition for a Better Chinese American Community. Currently, we are working on voter registration campaigns to get the Chicago Chinatown Community more involved in the democratic process! Above and in the Events tab you'll find opportunities to get involved. Thank you so much!
