Friends of Durham
The philosophy of the Friends of Durham is to MAKE DURHAM A BETTER PLACE FOR EVERYONE. This means that the best interest of Durham takes precedence over that of the Friends of Durham, any segment of the community or any political candidate. If we hurt Durham, not only have we failed in our mission, but we have violated the very foundation on which our organization is based.
We feel the best way to make Durham a better place is to focus our energies on local issues. Primarily those issues that fall under control of the City Council, the County Commission and the School Board. Also local offices like the sheriff, district attorney, clerk of court and judgeships.
While state and national issues are important to Durham, they are best addressed through other organizations. Our members are not in anyway prohibited from participating in state and national campaigns, but our primary focus is local.
