About America Votes
America Votes centers its grantmaking on voter registration, turnout, voter education, and voter protection, with a clear emphasis on building state and national partner networks. The largest recent grant in the file was $20,172,500 to Black Progressive Action Coalition for social welfare work, followed by $7,500,000 to Future Forward USA Action for general support. Those awards fit a broader pattern of large operating and programmatic support to organizations involved in election-related field work, coalition development, and civic engagement. The foundation also backs organizations serving specific constituencies within that broader electoral agenda. Recent grants include $4,650,000 to Somos Votantes and $4,670,000 to Unite Here Action Fund, both listed for social welfare, along with $4,450,000 to League of Conservation Voters for general support. America Votes also funds its own affiliated entities, including America Votes Action Fund, which appears multiple times in the recent grants list. Across the record, the emphasis is on partner organizations that can move voters, protect access, and coordinate election-focused activity at scale.
What America Votes Funds
Within voter engagement, America Votes has directed major support to field-heavy organizations such as Map USA, which received $3,900,000 in 2025 and $3,450,000 in 2024. The education and access side of its work shows up in grants to groups such as Register America, which received $1,900,000 in 2024, and Center for Voter Information, which received $2,065,000 in 2023. Coalition-based election work is another clear thread. New Georgia Project Action Fund received $2,275,000 in 2024, reflecting the foundation’s use of state-based partners in its network. America Votes also supports issue-aligned turnout organizations, including Planned Parenthood Action Fund at $3,750,000 in 2025 and Climate Reality Action Fund at $1,600,000 in 2025. The pattern points to voter mobilization, civic participation, and election administration support rather than one-off project grants.
How America Votes Gives
Typical grants cluster around a median of $200,000, with a lower quartile of $65,000 and an upper quartile of $500,000, although the recent file also includes multi-million-dollar awards. The grant list shows repeat relationships across years, including Black Progressive Action Coalition, LCV Victory Fund, For Our Future Action Fund, and America Votes Action Fund. America Votes is a regular funder, not a DAF, and it does not fund individuals or make program-related investments.
