Hi all, Queer the Vote Gay colorado boulder

Make sure your vote is tallied this election. If you did not vote in the last general election in 2010 then you may have an "inactive" voter status. Inactive voters do not receive a mail-in ballot. So you are still a registered voter, but will have to go to the polls or pick your ballot up from the Elections office. There is still time to update your voter status. For Boulder County residents, you can check your status by calling the Elections Division:  303-413-7740. You can also check your registration status at govotecolorado.com or call 1-866-Our Vote.

In solidarity,
Aicila Lewis
Executive Director, Out Boulder

COMMUNITY SPOTLIGHT:  Open Door Fund Seeks New Advisory Committee Members  
     
Open Door Fund Gay Lesbian Bisexual Transgender Queer Boulder Colorado The Advisory Committee of the The Open Door Fund, a permanent endowment at the Community Foundation Boulder County that raises funds and makes grants that enhance the lives of the LGBT community, is looking for new members to join the committee this fall. A primary role of committee members is to decide which organizations should receive grants that are awarded each September. In addition, committee members help with raising money for grants and to grow the endowment, primarily through putting on an annual spring dinner, and by helping with a newly inaugurated endowment campaign. The committee meets the second Tuesday of each month, and terms are for a two year period. If you're interested in joining the committee, or know someone who might be, you can read more at  www.opendoorfund.org, talk to a current committee member, or email bobmorehouse@mac.com.
