An old friend of my had offered to help on my campaign, so, I asked him if he would canvass.
He initially agreed, but then sent me an email as he had some second thoughts about whether or not he was really comfortable doing that.
We talked about it, and I told him that I understood entirely. People are generally up for helping out and give generously of their time. But, canvassing seems to strike terror into some hearts!
Anyway, he had made a commitment and was going to stick to that. So, we teamed him up with a "veteran" and off he went.
His follow up email stated: "Sometimes being pushed out of your comfort zone is needed. I had fun." And, in a subsequent conversation he told me that he was happy that he got involved in his community.
So, remember –
Canvassing Doesn’t Hurt.
We team you up with another volunteer, we show you the ropes, and you get an opportunity to get involved in your community. Plus, you get one of those limited edition “Let’s put the Aura back in Aurora” T-shirts!
