Paying Tribute to a Progressive Champion

05:00 PM Aug 26, 2009

All of us here at DemocracyInAction were deeply saddened by the news last night that America lost a great champion of the progressive movement - Senator Edward Kennedy. Throughout the country, tributes are pouring in as Americans share their appreciation for someone who gave so much to make life better for so many.

Senator Kennedy has been there for the hundreds of progressive organizations that use Salsa, and we'd like to make it easy to share our appreciation for his work. The Kennedy family has set up a tribute site at www.tedkennedy.org with a form for people to share their memories and express their sympathies with his family. If DemocracyInAction member organizations would like to set up a campaign through our Actions 2.0 tool to help your supporters send messages through this form, you can easily do that. Simply create a custom recipient for "Senate Kennedy Tribute Messages" and contact support at democracyinaction dot org requesting that we link the form to that custom recipient. Our standard $95 fee for this service is being waived for this form (as long as it stays the same, which we expect it to).
