Help me get to the DNC in July!

Hello! My name is Mishna, I'm 22 years old, attend UCLA, and I'm a resident of Los Angeles, CA! I recently got elected as a Bernie-pledged delegate to represent my district at the Democratic National Convention on July 25-28th. Based on my positionality within the 5 delegates elected, I'll for sure be one of the delegates sent to have Bernie's back :)

I've been volunteering since June after I helped create the Northeast LA for Bernie Sanders group and watched it grow into the amazing team it is today. Being 22, I've never been involved in the political process. In fact, I hadn't really been paying much attention until Bernie Sanders announced his candidacy! We're heading into what looks like a contested convention, so I'll not only be voting for Bernie, but I will advocate for him as well in order to get some Hillary Clinton delegates and super-delegates to switch their votes to Bernie. It's a complete honor to be elected to represent my district, and hope to come back with Bernie as the nominee! 

I got the votes; now I need to fund my trip there! While I'm able to pay for some of the expenses of my trip, I know I'm going to need some help completing this. I'll need to secure my plane ticket SOON, so please consider donating to help me get to Philly in the first place! The California Democratic Party breaks down the cost of my trip like this: 

- Airfare: $400-$900
- DNC Hotel for 4 Nights: $2,600
- Food & Incidentals: $450
- Statewide Delegate Meeting: $150
TOTAL: $3,600-$4,100

I really appreciate you taking the time to read this. If you can help me achieve my goal, thank you. If you're not able to help me at the moment, please consider sharing this with your friends. Any money that I don't use will be returned to each donor, proportionally. 

Thank you, and #FeelTheBern
