NDEA-PACE- Your Donation makes a difference

Pace Protects Pensions!

Click here to Protect your Pension by donating through continuous, year-round, automatic electronic withdrawals. By contributing just $6 a month, we can raise over $50,000 a year to elect legislators -- legislators who are NDEA-recommended by members (people who do what you do everyday and volunteer to serve the Association in this capacity).

The North Dakota Education Association Political Action Committee for Education (NDEA-PACE), a board comprised of 6 members, collects contributions from members to help elect friends of education to state and local office and to help educate members and the public about education issues. No Association dues dollars are ever expended to support candidates.

NDEA-PACE and the National Education Association Fund for Children and Public Education help elect those individuals who support public education and support the economic and professional well-being of our members.  The NDEA-PACE fund is necessary because every education decision is a political decision.

Members are encouraged to donate to the NDEA-PACE fund through continuous, year-round, automatic electronic withdrawals. By contributing just $6 a month, we can raise over $50,000 a year to elect legislators -- legislators who are NDEA-recommended by members (people who do what you do everyday and volunteer to serve the Association in this capacity).

Also, members can contribute through the Every Member Option (EMO) program at the time of membership enrollment/renewal. Other PACE fundraisers are conducted during Association activities and during a special spring drive.

With your increased involvement, NDEA-PACE will make greater strides in electing individuals to help strengthen the collective bargaining law and contract protections, increase foundation aid, ensure retirement benefits, supplement special education, and fortify legal rights. 

Electing friends of education is the only way to ensure our children are guided by dedicated educators and receive equitable education funding, programs, materials, textbooks, and cutting-edge technology.

Why PACE?

NDEA-PACE will make greater strides in electing individuals to help strengthen the collective bargaining law and contract protections, increase foundation aid, ensure retirement benefits, supplement special education, and fortify legal rights.
