VOTER Project

PTP is seeking proposals: The VOTER Project is a new program for non-profit 501C3 organizing groups doing voter education and get-out-the-vote work in 2008. This program is designed to improve the capacity of community-led organizing groups to integrate their voter projects with their on-going organizing programmatic work. This program includes an opportunity for 4-8 organizations to receive grants, technology training and technical support.. Another 10-15 organizations will be eligible for technology training and technical support only.

Apply soon! Training is this month. Training grant awards will be made separately from the cash grant awards which will start in mid-May and will continue as funding is available. More details are available here.

Learn from the experiences of other organizers

PTP has something new for community organizations!  We have created a special website for community organizers, technology support people, and funders interested in learning more about how to increase and sustain civic participation.  We have structured it for you to see and hear directly from organizers who have engaged in successful voter projects that have become permanent programs of their organizations.  If your organization is interested in voter projects that go beyond voter registration and you are wondering how other organizations do it, check out the Voter Techkit - you can visit it now at http://votertechkit.progressivetech.org
