Voter participation – making sure that everyone who is eligible CAN and DOES vote, and that those votes count – is a longstanding pillar belief of the Kapor Foundation. Since 2007, we’ve invested nearly $4 million in organizations working actively with communities to stimulate voter engagement, participation in elections, and protection of legal and physical access to the polls.
We’re excited to share resources to help individuals to register, ensure that they have the right forms of required identification, find polling places, and contact in case of problems at the polls.
It’s critical that potential voters receive accurate and up-to-date information. Most of these organizations are/have been our grant partners, so we can vouch for them. Be sure to encourage others to use resources that come from credible sources! Double check!
