Hi, John,
 

On Tuesday, I held a press conference at the former State Hospital here in Allentown, where a massive redevelopment project is on the horizon. During the conference, I touched on some of the policies I will employ as mayor, and revealed my plan for how to address economic development through economic justice. 

But first I need to get elected — and that means I need your support.

When it comes to economic development, leading means investing in projects that strengthen the economy, creating jobs, and making Allentown an attractive place to live, work, and play. But this must be done with community needs in mind. The two are not mutually exclusive. 
 

I'm the candidate most prepared to address the gentrification, inequities, and lack of transparency in the development of our city. I have a team. I have a comprehensive plan. And I know how to lead. 
 

But if we're going to do this — I need you to show up now more than ever, John.

Can you make a contribution right now to ensure my campaign team has the resources we need to win this election?

We need $7,324 to reach our goal this month. It's the most critical month for fundraising, and time is running out. 

If you've stored payment info with ActBlue Express, we'll process your contribution instantly:

John — I can't thank you enough for your support and for sharing my vision of a more equitable and inclusive Allentown.

Warmly,
Ce-Ce Gerlach
