About House Majority Forward
House Majority Forward’s largest recent grant was $38.5 million to HMP in 2025 for 527 exempt function activities, followed by an $18.15 million contribution to America Votes. Those two awards point to a funder built around electoral and advocacy infrastructure rather than small project grants. Across the recent record, the foundation supports organizations tied to Democratic majorities, voter mobilization, and policy advocacy, with grants reaching groups working on public safety, contraception, climate, and education policy. Recent recipients include Giffords, 314 Action Fund, and Americans for Contraception, showing a mix of political, social welfare, and issue-based organizations. The foundation also backed House Majority Pac in both 2023 and 2024, suggesting continuity in support for campaign-related activity. Its grantmaking is largely centered on Washington, DC organizations, but it also includes recipients in Chicago, New York, Boston, and McLean.

In health-related advocacy, it awarded $2.5 million to 314 Action Fund in 2025, while also backing education or labor-adjacent civic organizing through a $1 million grant to Working America in 2023.
