About All Voting Is Local Action
All Voting Is Local Action centers grantmaking on identifying, preventing, and remedying voting barriers, with recent awards aimed at civic education, public education and advocacy, and election administration work. The largest recent grants show that focus clearly: $100,000 went to ADRC Action for education, and another $100,000 supported RuralOrganizingOrg for public education and advocacy. The foundation also backs state-based election access efforts such as The Voter Project in Philadelphia and Organize Pennsylvania in Pittsburgh, showing a pattern of funding organizations that work close to voters and local election systems. Its recent awards suggest a broad but targeted approach to ballot access and civic participation. Grant recipients include groups working in Arizona, Pennsylvania, Georgia, Florida, Ohio, Nevada, Wisconsin, Michigan, and California, along with organizations serving specific communities and voter groups. The portfolio includes civic education, voter protection, and advocacy support, with award sizes ranging from small operating-scale grants to six-figure commitments. Hannah Fried leads the foundation, and the 2025 filings show annual grantmaking of $679,700 against assets of $1,008,020.
What All Voting Is Local Action Funds
Voting rights is the core throughline in the portfolio. In Arizona, All Voting Is Local Action gave $55,000 to Living United for Change in Arizona for civic education, and $14,000 to Civic Engagement Beyond Voting for public education and advocacy. In Pennsylvania, the foundation supported Organize Pennsylvania with $40,000 for civic education, and in Philadelphia it awarded $10,000 to Free the Ballot Incarcerated Voter Family Network for public education and advocacy. The foundation also funds civic outreach tied to specific communities. It gave $15,000 to Asian American Advocacy Fund for civic education and $10,000 to Asian Pacific Islander Political Alliance for civic education. In Florida, Equal Ground Action Fund received $10,000 for public education and advocacy, while Florida Rising Together received the same amount for the same purpose. Across these grants, the emphasis stays on voter information, outreach, and access-oriented public engagement rather than direct services to individuals.
How All Voting Is Local Action Gives
Typical grants cluster around a middle tier: the 25th percentile is $10,000, the median is $17,500, and the 75th percentile is $40,000. Recent giving includes both larger one-year awards and repeated support for the same organizations: Civic Engagement Beyond Voting received $14,000 in 2025 and $10,000 in 2024, and it also funded other recipients across multiple years. The foundation does not fund individuals and does not make program-related investments. The recent grant list is entirely U.S.-based, and the grant pattern is consistent with advocacy and public-education support rather than capital or PRI-style financing.
