Funding pattern

What this funder pays for, at what size, and how to position adjacent work. Read from their filings, with every number checked against the record.

Where the money goes

Battleground-state voter mobilization tables in NC, WI, MI, AZ, NV, OH
Black voter engagement and turnout organizations
Economic and family policy issue campaigns tied to elections
Latino voter mobilization, largely Somos and Mi Familia Vota affiliates
Climate and conservation voter programs (LCV, NextGen, Climate Reality)
Labor, worker power, and reproductive rights advocacy funds

Typical grant

Median check is $250,000, with the middle half between $75,000 and $656,250. The very large money, $3M to $14M, goes to national c4 and PAC infrastructure like Campaign for a Family Friendly Economy, Black Progressive Action Coalition, MAP USA, BlackPAC, and the LCV entities; small checks in the $125,000 to $300,000 range go to state and constituency groups such as GLAHR Action Network, Western Native Voice, and NCAAT in Action. With 424 grants to 328 recipients, repeat funding is common but sizes swing hard with the election cycle, peaking in even years.

Their words

Phrases from their own grant descriptions, worth speaking back to them.

“Primary Purpose”
“General Support”
“Action Fund”
“Victory Fund”
“PAC”

Positioning adjacent work

Connect work to a named battleground: North Carolina, Wisconsin, Michigan, Arizona, Nevada, Ohio, Pennsylvania.
Frame around measurement and civic data, echoing Evidence for Impact and Center for Civic Information grants.
Ask $150,000 to $650,000 for a first relationship, not seven figures.
Route through an existing grantee's state table rather than seeking a standalone direct grant.

Worth knowing: This is 501(c)(4) and PAC money, not academic or 501(c)(3) research funding; the ten largest grants alone account for roughly a quarter of the $342M, and DC-headquartered entities take 96 of 424 grants. Giving is coalition-driven and relationship-based, flowing through a known network of state tables and constituency organizations rather than open solicitation.

Top recipients

Repeat recipients are the strongest signal of whether a funder has an open door or quietly re-funds the same organizations.
