A note from Dan
I’m Dan Kelly, and I’m on the ballot November 3 to be the next State Representative for Georgetown, Hamilton, Ipswich, Newbury, Rowley, and Topsfield. Join my wife Lori and me on June 17 for a very special event to kick off the campaign as we begin to spread my message of service, civility, and accountability. I’m all in and ready to serve our communities. But I cannot do it alone. I need your words of wisdom, your prayers, your time, your lawns, and your financial support. Come on June 17 and let’s start this together. You’ll get a chance to hear my message and my pledge to the voters. More importantly, I’ll get to hear your thoughts on why we need a change and what it’s going to take to make it. We’re in this together. Let’s go!
Service is my number one priority
Our vulnerable veterans have been neglected for too long. That’s why I wanted to kick off my campaign with a tip of the hat to those who served. For every dollar you donate on June 17, my campaign will give 50% of the proceeds to the Eastern Essex District Department of Veterans Services (EEDVS), serving the communities of Essex, Georgetown, Ipswich, Newbury, Rowley, and West Newbury. EEDVS coordinates local, state, and federal benefits for veterans and their families — ensuring no veteran in our district falls through the cracks.
If I am fortunate to be elected, I will not leave the veterans in our district behind. They deserve our attention, support, and recognition.
EEDVS SERVES ESSEX · GEORGETOWN · IPSWICH · NEWBURY · ROWLEY · WEST NEWBURY
