Hi there. It’s Quentin James and Stefanie Brown James, the husband-and-wife team behind The Collective PAC, which has been dedicated to supporting and funding Black candidates on the local, state, and federal levels and engaging Black voters in the political process since 2016.
In the last three years, we’ve provided over 100,000 free rideshares to and from the polls, registered over 200,000 voters, and made nearly 5 million voter contact attempts.
That translates into success
→ we’ve helped elect over 400 Black candidates to local, state and federal office.
But here’s the thing:
Our success relies on grassroots supporters like you.
We need to raise $50,000 in February alone if we're going to continue this important work in 2024. That’s why we’re reaching out to ask if you’ll split a gift of $10 between Castro for congress and The Collective PAC this Black History Month. Your donation will go directly toward powering Black candidates all over the country:
| If you've stored your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will process immediately between Castro for Congress and The Collective PAC. |
We wanted to reach out to you personally during this Black History Month and ask for your support in 2024.
This election cycle is a critical test of our collective strength. Winning in 2024 means electing a Black woman to the U.S. Senate, beating far-right extremists like Ted Cruz, and uplifting Black Democrats up and down the ballot.
Losing in 2024 to a fascist like Donald Trump would spell disaster — and quite literally an end to democracy as we know it.
As we head into one of the most consequential election cycles in our nation’s history for Black candidates and Black voters alike, we need to raise $50,000 by Feb 29. So please consider splitting a donation between Castro for Congress and The Collective PAC before the end of the month:

When you invest in The Collective PAC, your dollars go straight to work uplifting the next generation of Black Democratic elected officials and voters. Some of the money we raise goes towards registering voters, providing free rideshares to and from polling locations, and contacting voters. The rest goes straight to our Democratic candidates.
Thanks, team. As always, we couldn’t be more grateful for your endless commitment to building Black political power.
