Help us “build” the future of democratic socialism in Louisville!

Currently, the LDSA rents space in Shelby Park’s Smoketown Collective, alongside several other groups. We host upwards of 100 meetings and events every year, some of which attract dozens of members. It’s a tight fit at times, as far as scheduling around other groups’ meetings, let alone accommodating our own members. As of now, our meeting capacity is 40 people even though our chapter has 400+ members (and growing!). It’s only a matter of time before we outgrow this rented space.

Purchasing a building is not cheap and with that in mind, LDSA is embarking upon a long-term fundraising effort by establishing a dedicated Building Fund, maintained separately from our general chapter funds.

Will you help us secure the future headquarters of LDSA so we can become a local political powerhouse in Louisville?

LDSA needs its own building so we can:

• Accommodate more members, more comfortably
• Hold multiple committee meetings at once
• Host a wider variety of events, i.e. watch parties and social mixers
• Tailor the space to meet our specific needs as the chapter grows and evolves
• Avoid scheduling conflicts with other groups
• Expand our socialist library and add other “special” spaces
• Have sole access to a kitchen and bathrooms

You can help us by:

• Donating directly to the fund on this page!
• Becoming an LDSA member and joining our fundraising efforts
• Buying LDSA merchandise
• Bringing friends and family to fundraising events and encouraging them to donate
