March 21 thru April 11, 2021
This is the 21st Annual Roosevelt-Kennedy fundraising year for the Coconino County Democratic Party. This year we’re offering “21 days for 2021” virtually, beginning March 21! Join the fun with our online events and sales.
Proceeds from this event support operation of our Party, including grassroots organizing, voter registration, communications, keeping the office open and operational, and paying the salary of our Office Manager. We run a lean and mean operation powered almost entirely by volunteers; still, we need many dollars to make those volunteer efforts effective as we work to elect Democrats to public office at all levels of government.
Thank You to Our Amazing Supporters!

Eleanor Roosevelt Award
During our Grand Finale on April 11, we’ll present the Eleanor Roosevelt Award. The Award is given annually to members of our community whose work and service to the people of Coconino County embody the ideals of Eleanor Roosevelt. The deadline for nominations is March 15. More info here.
Read about the nominees — The winner is Sharon Edgar!
Though she never held elected office, Mrs. Roosevelt was viewed as a tireless defender of the average American. She was the champion of the underdog. She said, “I see it as our duty to comfort the afflicted, and to afflict the comfortable.”
