HCDP Democrats Step Up with Year-Round Community Service

Kathy DaVia • February 5, 2026

The Hendricks County Democratic Party (HCDP) has spent the past several months putting Democratic values into action through a series of hands-on service projects designed to meet real needs in the community.


Beginning last summer, HCDP members organized monthly efforts focused on supporting local families, schools, and nonprofits. In July, volunteers collected paper necessities for the Mill Creek Christian Support Center, followed in August by a non-perishable food drive benefiting Sheltering Wings. September saw members preparing meals for families served by Family Promise and Almost Home, helping provide stability during difficult transitions.


In October, HCDP hosted a community blood drive, contributing to a critical and ongoing public health need. November’s focus shifted to civic engagement, with Democrats organizing and hosting a Civics Literacy Lab to help residents better understand how government works and how to participate effectively.


The holiday season brought direct support to local schools. In December, HCDP contributed $1,500 to Mill Creek schools to help reduce student lunch debt, easing financial pressure on families. In January, members continued their commitment to education by collecting school supplies for students in Pittsboro and North Salem.


“These projects reflect who we are,” said HCDP leaders. “Democrats believe in showing up for our neighbors, strengthening our community, and making sure no one is left behind.”


HCDP invites community members who share those values to join them in future service efforts. Whether through volunteering, donating, or simply lending a hand, there are many ways to get involved and help continue this work.
