Uniting Generations with Fuerza Democrats TN in Chattanooga

On October 24th, Fuerza Democrats TN held its first-ever reception in Chattanooga, Tennessee, a milestone moment for our growing movement. We’re deeply grateful to our gracious host, Sharon Alexander, for opening her home and welcoming us with such warmth, to our generous donors, and to the more than 60 guests who joined us in celebration.

Thanks to everyone’s incredible support, we not only exceeded our fundraising goal but also had the honor of welcoming inspiring leaders, including Representative Yusuf Hakeem and Tennessee Democratic Party Chair Rachel Campbell.

This gathering was about bridging generations, building community, and reaffirming our shared commitment to a more just and politically empowered future. We’re especially thankful for the in-kind contributions that made the evening shine — photography by Erika De Leon, music by Ben Salter, catering from El Sol Restaurant, charro beans by Maribel Nunez, and desserts by Café Laurel.

Together, we are proving that when our community unites with purpose and passion, there is nothing we can’t achieve.

About Fuerza Democrats TN

Fuerza Democrats Tennessee is a state political action committee empowering Latinos across Tennessee to shape the future through political participation.

Why These Events Matter

Fundraisers like this one make our work possible. They help us recruit candidates, facilitate intentional mentorship and provide financial support to the next generation of Latino Democrat candidates. Most importantly, they remind us of the fuerza, the strength,  that comes from coming together around shared values and a vision for a better Tennessee.

Thank you again to all who attended, donated, and continue to support our mission. Together, we’re building a better political future for our state.
