Membership
Joining Hell’s Kitchen Democrats is simple. Any person who subscribes to and desires to further the goals and purposes of the Club, shall become a General Member in good standing immediately upon the payment of dues.
Voting Membership is open to any General Member who is a registered voter enrolled in the Democratic Party, or who identifies with the Democratic Party but is not eligible to be an enrolled Democratic voter, and who resides, works or does business in the Club Area, which is defined as Hell’s Kitchen, or an Assembly District that includes any portion of Hell’s Kitchen and in which the Club has endorsed a candidate for Democratic Party office or has declared an intention to do so.

Volunteer
Want to take action and make a real impact in your community? Volunteering with HK Dems is a great way to get involved in local politics, support progressive causes, and connect with fellow New Yorkers who care about making change.
Volunteer duties may include:
• Distributing flyers, pamphlets, and voter information
• Helping with voter registration and turnout efforts
• Supporting endorsed candidates during campaign season
• Participating in community outreach events
• Assisting with club events, meetings, and social media
• Engaging neighbors in meaningful conversations about local issues
Whether you’re a seasoned organizer or just getting started, we welcome volunteers of all experience levels. Every conversation, flyer, and event helps build a stronger, more equitable Hell’s Kitchen—and we’d love for you to be part of it.
