Please make a 2020 donation to PADPAC! Here are the club levels:
In our constant efforts to bring PDA legislative victories PADPAC
does everything possible to create the conditions for victory. Our
preparatory work in November and December should be a big
help in making 2020 one of our best years ever. PADPAC touches
every base in order to bring the runner (our legislation) home. We
will continue to work every angle to pass legislation that benefits
PDA dentists and the patients for whom they care. President’s Club $2,500+
One of the best ways to do your part on the road to success is to
become a PADPAC member and a PADPAC contributor. By
contributing to PADPAC you are directly making a significant and
positive impact in your professional life and in your professional
organization, PDA.
Liberty Club $1,000 - $2,499
Capitol Club $500 - $999
Keystone Club $200 - $499
Century Club
$120 - $199
If you have any questions about making a contribution to
PADPAC, please contact John Basial at [email protected] or
(800) 223-0016, ext. 108. You can also contribute online by visiting
padental.org/padpac.
Just as campaign contributions are the lifeblood of a political
campaign so is a PADPAC contribution essential for the health of
your PAC. Your valued contributions are what we use to impact the
electoral landscape for the benefit of you and your patients.
This year we are having a PADPAC contributor appreciation event
at a Phillies game in one of the suites. Every PAC member who
contributes $500 or more will be eligible to attend. Please encourage
others in your profession to join PDA and PADPAC.
When you contribute to your PADPAC please pay with your
personal check or credit card because if you pay via a corporate
card or check it limits PDA’s strategic flexibility.
We know that making personal contributions (hard dollars) is a
sacrifice. We take that sacrifice very seriously by only spending your
hard earned dollars where necessary. The truth is, we need hard
dollars to win. In order to compete with the insurance lobbyists,
one of the most formidable opponents in Pennsylvania politics, we
need hard dollars to support those elected officials who believe in
you and support you. If you don’t want to make a lump sum
contribution you can make monthly contributions which may be
easier or more convenient for you. If you choose the monthly
contribution, by the end of the year you will have made a significant
contribution towards your PAC. $100 per month for 12 months is
over $1,000. That’s only a little over $3 a day. $50 per month per
month for 12 months is $600. That’s less than $2 a day. The day to
day impact on you is pretty minimal, but the end of the year
contribution to the PAC is a major help in moving your agenda
forward. That type of contribution makes a big difference in
strengthening your PAC and allowing us to have greater access and
more decisive input into the various campaigns we contribute
towards.
