Augie Republicans Trip to CPAC

Donation protected
At Augustana University, students are leaders. Students strive to achieve the highest possible standard of community, excellence, leadership and diligence. As the Augustana University Republicans, we are no different.

Almost all student groups at Augustana University are student funded. We volunteer at local non-profits to raise money for our student account. With the money that we raise, we dedicate the funds to our members; we provide them with opportunities for learning.

One of the greatest opportunities for young conservatives to hit the ground running is the Conservative Political Action Conference, or CPAC, in Washington, D.C. in March, 2016. The conference hosts thousands of conservative leaders, and is even hosting a few of the Presidential Candidates who are fighting for Republican Nominee. CPAC is a bootcamp for young conservatives: it engages them in the political process, creates networks, and provides hands-on learning about how college students can relay their political experience and skills onto their campuses; thus sharing conservative values, engaging more students into one of most important parts of being an American citizen.

That's where you come in. Augustana University Republicans want to take as many students as possible. Our goal is to take 18 students to Washington, D.C for four nights during the conference. We will use the funds to pay for flight tickets, transportation to and from the airport, and lodging.

As the conference is in Washington, D.C in March, we are trying to reach our goal of $5,000 by the end of January 2016 in order to book flights for 18 students. As any conservative knows, hard work and dedication will reap results. We know that with hard work and dedication, we can make this trip affordable for 18 college students.

Attending CPAC is going to be the highlight of our college careers. We will be in the political center of the world, meeting and listening to some of the most influential conservative leaders, and best of all, we will be with other conservatives from around the country with the same values . While learning and experiencing so much, we will be surrounded by our fellow colleagues and friends. This trip will mean so much to our group, and it will create experiences we will remember for the rest of our lives.

Thank you, thank you, thank you in advance for the time you took to read our story, and your consideration in donating. We hope you understand that we could not appreciate you more. We are so grateful for your kindness, thoughtfulness and consideration in donating. Thank you so much again, and we look forward to sharing our experiences with you.
