Friend,
As you know, Groundwork’s mission is to support community organizers, advocates, and activists across the country working year-round in places traditionally under-resourced, excluded, and ignored. We invest in hyperlocal efforts that build sustainable political infrastructure, engage and educate voters, and build power for the underrepresented and disenfranchised.
Our grant program puts this mission into action. (To support this work, donate here!)
And now, after much hard work and thanks to your generous support, Groundwork Project is elated to introduce you to our next round of grantees. We know that you’ll love them as much as we do!
