the potluck

Bring a dish, or become a regular.

A potluck works because nobody brings everything. Give once and it goes on the table today, or give monthly and be one of the regulars — the people a table plans around. Fund the state you live in, the one you’re from, or the one that needs it most.

Whose table

$3 of $500

Tennessee is already built and live — dishes here pay its real bills.

How you’re giving

Amount each month

+ Tip the builder — optional

TheDems.org is built and run by one person, Tim. A tip goes to him, not to Tennessee’s bills — it’s itemized on your receipt and never counted in any state’s total. On a monthly gift, the tip repeats monthly too.

Name (optional)Seat me at the table publicly, by name only — never an amount. Off by default: anonymous unless you choose otherwise. Your email is only used for the receipt.

Read this before you give

Who runs this. TheDems.org is built and run by one named person, Tim Gaull. There is no company behind it yet — the first $500 raised files one, and that milestone is published like every other.
Not tax-deductible. Your contribution is not a charitable donation and is not tax-deductible.
Not political money. Nothing you give here goes to any candidate, campaign, or party. It pays for the infrastructure line items published on the costs page.
Counted in public. Every payment is added to its state’s public running total the moment it clears — itemized on the public ledger — and a receipt goes to your email.
If this ever ends. If the project winds down, remaining funds after obligations go to Global GAIN, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit building the democracy workforce.

TheDems.org is independent infrastructure and is not a candidate, party committee, or PAC. Payments are processed by Stripe; we never see your card number. Monthly gifts can be changed or stopped any time from your giving page. Questions: billing@thedems.org.
