2026 Kandler Celebration

The people are marching, the people are loud, we’re done being silenced — and we will not bow! The joy democracy-defenders feel when we are all in a room together is palpable. Help us to build that energy by sponsoring this year’s Kandler Celebration. As a community of activists, we do not want cost to be a barrier to anyone in our community who would like to join us in celebration of our mission and community initiatives. Every sponsorship allows us to welcome all community members to celebrate together because when we work together, we win together, and democracy needs us now. Join us in celebrating our collective community action with an evening of hors d’oeuvres, beverages, and an online silent auction to support civil liberties work in Delaware! Each year, we remember Gerry Kandler, former president of ACLU Delaware, and honor those who exemplify his tireless commitment to the defense of all Delawareans’ civil liberties.
