This is a great opportunity for people looking to get involved in campaigns in new ways! Highly encouraged for young Dems and current treasurers in Monroe County!

He will review the New York State filing system, discuss how to report different transactions and line items, and spend most of the time answering your questions. Whether you’re a new treasurer, considering serving as one, or looking for guidance on an upcoming filing, you’re welcome to attend.

Thursday, September 24
7:00–8:30 p.m.

Monroe County Young Democrats (MCYD) was named the 2026 Chapter of the Year by the New York State Young Democrats (NYSYD) at their 10th Annual Gala. The honor recognizes MCYD's growth and organizing work in the three years since the chapter's relaunch, including its rapid membership growth, its efforts to connect young Democrats directly with elected officials, and its newly launched Text the Vote campaign to boost voter turnout among young people across Monroe County.
"This award belongs to every member who showed up, made calls, and knocked on doors because they believed local work is the work that matters," said Nayeliz Santiago, President of Monroe County Young Democrats. "Three years ago we relaunched this chapter with the knowledge that all politics is local, and this recognition tells us that knowledge was right. We're proud to stand alongside so many incredible honorees, and to celebrate everything our members and this chapter have accomplished. This is a milestone, not a finish line — and we're already looking ahead to the work still in front of us."
