Carmen Hulbert Delegate for Bernie!

Donation protected
On a glorious day of February'16 at City Hall before delivering 65,000 signatures for Bernie Sanders and his delegates at the NY Board of Elections.

Hi, I am Carmen V. Hulbert (a.k.a. Natasha Valdivieso,) resident of Red Hook, Brooklyn, and the co-founder of Latinos for Bernie NYC. I have been a Bernie Sanders volunteer since August'15, working in the streets of New York City and five other states, talking to people about the need to get back the American Dream for everyone and those who came to this country looking for a better way of life and have not found much in the last decades.
After months of intense work with amazing volunteers, like Victor Ortega, co-founder of our group, and many others, canvassing, petitioning signatures and registering voters  in all boroughs around NYC, I was elected a National Delegate for CD7 in Brooklyn on April 19th.
I will be attending the Democratic Convention in Philadelphia from July 24 to 29, and I need to cover those expenses which go way above my budget as a retiree. The funds will be use for transportation, hotel and meals during those five days.
Your contribution in any amount will help me to take the voice of the thousands of people who elected me to this important event, where we will elect our Democratic Presidential candidate for the November elections.
Deadline to raise the funds will be July 17th.
Thank you for your great help!
