If you are a female pro-choice candidate running for the State Legislature
in 2008, you can seek an endorsement, and potential campaign resources, from
PWCF.
Congratulations on your decision to seek election to Pennsylvania's General
Assembly!
The Pennsylvania Women's Campaign Fund is a multi-partisan organization
established in 1982 to provide assistance to progressive women candidates
for the state legislature. Since its inception, the PWCF has distributed
more than $100,000 to women candidates throughout Pennsylvania.
To qualify for endorsement or financial and/or technical assistance from
the Pennsylvania Women's Campaign Fund, women candidates are expected to
espouse the progressive position on issues affecting the quality of life
and human needs, a demonstrated commitment to building a more just society,
and sensitive recognition of the concerns of women in the process of social
change.
If you are interested in obtaining financial and/or technical support from,
and/or endorsement of, the Pennsylvania Women's Campaign Fund for your candidacy,
we invite you to complete the
enclosed
application and return it to me. If you have a primary opponent, I need
to receive your application by, February 22, 2008. You must also include
information on your campaign, such as your written campaign plan, budget
and other printed materials, to qualify for endorsement. Please mail the
application and the materials to PWCF, PO Box 621, Lewisburg, PA 17837. A
member of the Fund's board of directors will then contact you to arrange
for an interview.
We look forward to hearing from you.
Sincerely,
Jann Chirdon
Chair, Candidate Evaluation Committee
PWCF Board of Directors
