MLWGS’ Young Democrats have begun "Maggie Walker Mondays," a new program in which members of the club volunteer at the Obama Campaign’s Richmond headquarters on Marshall Street every Monday afternoon.
"We started going this summer," said co-President Courtney Stewart ('09), but the official launch date was the first Monday of the school year, September 8th.
Their work includes making phone calls, during which they poll people and ask if those polled are registered to vote.
It also includes canvassing the Richmond neighborhood, and "going around the VCU campus" to register students. The club is sponsored by Ms. McKay.
