'host sb at fund-raisers'
Hello, this is my first time here. This website is so cool.
The following sentence is from www.nyt.com.
" They glide easily through the corridors of power in Washington, with a number of them hosting Mr. Obama at fund-raisers while also visiting the White House on policy matters and official business. "
What does it mean by, "...hosting Mr. Obama at fund-rasers..."? Do it mean hosting him at fund-raisers' places?
