Other organizations at this address

1 other organization in the IRS Business Master File lists the same street address. matched by us

This address is a suite or unit (STE 300). Organizations that share one are often clients of the same office-services firm, accountant or registered agent rather than related to each other.

We match the street line and ZIP code as the IRS gives them, ignoring case and outer spaces and nothing else, so "AVE" and "AVENUE" count as different streets and this list can miss some. A shared address can mean related organizations or a shared office, but it can also be a registered agent, a mail drop or a service provider holding mail for unrelated clients. It is not, by itself, evidence that two organizations are connected.

Mission and programs · 2024

• Free and Fair ElectionsVoting is one of the most significant ways for Americans in the United States to participate in democracy. To develop a free, fair, and accessible election system, our Elections and Voting program supports groups who are empowering communities and strengthening our election infrastructure.

  Expenses $3,942,266 · Grants $3,553,000

• Vibrant and Diverse Public SquareReliable information is getting harder to find, leading to less informed voters and greater threats to democracy. To increase civic participation, the Public Square program invests in organizations and leaders who believe in the power of accurate and accessible information as a force for justice and democracy, and work to ensure communities have access to the information they need, online and offline.

  Expenses $864,089 · Grants $500,000

• Representative and Accountable GovernanceGoverning institutions should provide equal voice and power to all Americans, leaders should be accountable and responsive, and abuses of power should be rare. Achieving this vision requires reforming our institutions so that voters see themselves and their opinions represented in government and its policy decisions. The Governance program seeks to defend against threats that undermine our democracy and works to advance long-term, structural change that shifts power to the people and away from a select few.

  Expenses $6,880,188 · Grants $6,443,041

Officers and directors · 2024

As listed in Part VII of the 2024 return, in the order the filer printed them. Each return names its own; this is not a roster the organization keeps with us.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us. Earlier years are each on their own filing page.

Nonprofiteer parses Forms 990, 990-EZ and 990-PF, in a window of recent tax years. These returns are recorded from the IRS e-file index, so their figures were extracted by that index rather than read from the return here — treat them as a different source from the filings above, not as more of the same record. A dash means the index carries no figure; Form 990-T listings carry none at all.
