As many of you know, CBSD Neighbors United was born in 2021 - during one of the most divisive times in our district. And out of that chaos came something powerful: a grassroots movement built by everyday people who refused to sit back and let extremists define our schools and our community.
Our very first slate, which included Diana Leygerman, Tabitha Dell’Angelo, Mariam Mahmud, Jenine Zdanowicz, and Rob Dugger, and their small but mighty team of volunteers created CBSD Neighbors United to fill a void. There was no roadmap, no millionaire donors, no political machine, just a shared belief that our schools, our teachers and staff, our kids, and our community deserved better.
While many of our founders moved on to new roles and ways of serving, a few of us stayed to run the PAC. Together, we helped flip the board in 2023 and completed our mission in 2025 with a 9-0 Dem board. We restored leadership that reflects our community’s values of decency, transparency, and care for public education.
Now, we have made the difficult but proud decision to close our PAC.
We do so with immense pride and gratitude. Over three election cycles, we built something truly special, a community of moms and dads, grandparents and aunts and uncles, students and alums, teachers and staff, neighbors and friends, all fighting for the same thing: a better Central Bucks for all. Together, we proved that you don’t need to be powerful or wealthy to make a difference. You just need to care enough to act.
This work has been deeply rewarding and deeply exhausting. The hours, the pressure, the constant fight takes a toll. But we believe what we’ve built will outlast us. The seeds we planted have taken root, and we know others will grow something new from what we started.
Though CBSD Neighbors United is closing its doors, our spirit isn’t going anywhere. The people behind the name will continue to serve, speak up, and stand for what’s right in our schools and community.
From the bottom of our hearts, thank you. Thank you to every volunteer, donor, and neighbor who believed in us. Thank you to the candidates who allowed us to guide them to victory. You gave this movement life, and together, we made history.
With pride and gratitude,
CBSD Neighbors United
