Who are we?
The Haverford College Democrats are a student organization seeking to educate students in the principles and values of the Democratic Party and help elect Democrats to all levels of government.
The Haverford College Democrats wish to seek an America that is consistent with the platform of the Democratic Party and with the values of Haverford College. We believe in accepting every person for who they are, not what some believe they should be, and in having a government that will do the same. We believe that not everyone has the same level of privilege and that we need a government that will ensure that despite this everybody has an equal opportunity to succeed. We believe in the need to embrace diversity and ensure the participation of everyone regardless of sex, gender, race, national origin, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, ethnicity, religion, or physical handicap and seek to promote such an ideal on the campus of Haverford College. The Haverford College Democrats are a joint affiliate with the College Democrats of America and a chapter of the Pennsylvania Federation of College Democrats. |
Change is the law of life and those who look only to the past or present are certain to miss the future. President John F. Kennedy

What do we do?
We meet to discuss volunteer and internship opportunities, our plans for the coming weeks, and anything else we believe is important. We are also open to hearing ideas from anyone who attends our meetings as we are committed to providing resources and support for any student-run initiatives that further our own goals of increasing political engagement on Haverford's campus and supporting the Democratic Party.
