About Democracy Fund Voice
Democracy Fund Voice Inc’s recent grantmaking centers on direct advocacy for U.S. democracy, with large program-support grants tied to election protection, ballot measures, and anti-disinformation work. A $1.8 million grant to Sixteen Thirty Fund for the Trusted Elections Action Fund shows how the foundation backs coordinated election-related strategy, while a $793,041 grant to Campaign for Community Change for Fight Back Table Action points to its support for broader democracy advocacy infrastructure. The foundation also funds state-level campaigns, including $650,000 to Promote the Vote 2022 for a ballot measure in Michigan and another $650,000 to Arizonans for Free and Fair Elections for an Arizona ballot initiative. Its grantmaking spans civic engagement, election administration, transparency, governance reform, and the media ecosystem, often through general support and project-specific funding. The mix of advocacy funds, ballot campaign support, and journalism-related grants indicates a funder that works across several parts of the democracy field rather than through a single issue channel.

In elections work, Democracy Fund Voice Inc backed accessible and secure voting systems through a $500,000 grant to Run For Something Action Fund for the Clerk Work project and a $400,000 grant to Tides Advocacy for the Center for Ballot Freedom. In disinformation and media, it gave $500,000 to Reset Tech Action for the US Federated Counter-Disinformation Project and $400,000 to Free Press Action Fund for general support. For governance and accountability, the foundation awarded $600,000 to Public Citizen Inc to advance democracy, accountability, and election security, then followed with additional support for Democracy Protection. Its journalism-related funding includes $400,000 to Field Foundation of Illinois Inc for the Journalism & Storytelling Portfolio, linking media support to democratic infrastructure.
