Funding Priorities

- Voting rights advocacy and protection
- Coordinating state-level voter mobilization campaigns

What They Don't Fund
Information about exclusions not publicly available. The organization appears focused specifically on voter access, civic engagement, and democracy-related work, suggesting other program areas would not align with their mission.
Application Method
America Votes Education Fund does not have a public grant application process. They work through their coalition of more than 400 state and national partner organizations. Grants appear to be made through strategic partnerships and their Investment Hub rather than open application cycles.
Organizations interested in partnership opportunities should contact development@americavotes.org.
