2019 was quite the year for Democrats Abroad and for our chapter here in Berlin. On top of our monthly meetings, pub nights, book club, and film screenings, we are proud of the opportunities we provided to engage with other Americans in Berlin and to make a difference in our community. We held over 60 events throughout the year and appreciate your support in our efforts. Please take a moment to reflect on some of the events we held throughout the year and think about new ways you can help improve our chapter for 2020!
