About
Left Out – DuPage Area
is a unique local Facebook group that serves as an informational clearinghouse
for all Democratic leaning – progressive events occurring in and around DuPage
County. It has over 2,700 followers. On a weekly basis, Left-Out – DuPage Area
searches Facebook for events hosted by local campaigns and grassroots
organizations and reposts them to their followers. It is volunteer-run and has
no affiliation with any organization or campaign. You can also view Left Out’s other calendar of events on Facebook.
We would like to
encourage community organizations, progressives, unions, engaged citizens,
candidates, activists Democratic groups etc. throughout DuPage to
use Left Out as a common platform to share information about upcoming events.
This will freely advertise those events to Left Out’s 2,700+ followers, help
progressive groups to avoid inadvertently competing for the same constituencies
(such as by planning too many events on the same day), and allow progressives
to show up and support one another’s events. This method will allow us to
distribute the event information across platforms in emails, on Facebook,
websites, twitter, and on paper printed at will. It will amplify our
event participation if everyone posts in one place because it will allow for
the public to be better informed and involved.
