Biden campaign said that it received the highest monthly donation total in January since launching in April 2023.
President Joe Biden is planning to host a reelection campaign fundraiser in New York City next month alongside guests including former presidents Barack Obama and Bill Clinton.
The event is set to take place on March 28 although a venue has not yet been selected, according to officials.
President Obama, under whose administration President Biden previously served as vice president, confirmed the news on X (formerly Twitter) on Feb. 6.
“Folks – I’ll be in NYC on March 28th to support @JoeBiden. Who’s coming with me? Chip in for your chance to join,” he posted on the platform alongside a photo of President Biden, and Vice President Kamala Harris, and a link to the event.
Under the post, President Bill Clinton wrote: “Count me in. Who else is going to be there?” to which President Biden responded, jokingly, “You guys know you can just call me next time, right?”
According to the event link—which asks for donations—one individual could win the chance to attend alongside their chosen guest and meet the three presidents before getting photos with the former U.S. leaders.
The winner will also receive free flights and a hotel stay for the event in the Big Apple, with the overall cost of the prize amounting to approximately $ 4,000 in retail value, the link states. The event comes as President Biden ramps up fundraising efforts ahead of the November elections.
