Overview
Mission
The mission of the Alliance for Civic Engagement (ACE) is to promote and facilitate inclusive, informed, year-round civic participation. ACE amplifies underrepresented voices through education, voter registration awareness, public forums, and strategic engagement. We champion civic responsibility and equitable representation through sustained advocacy and community-focused initiatives.
What it reported doing in 2025
ACE hosted its Second Annual Unity Brunch, participated in the annual community parade, and organized its annual Summertime Family Reunion Cookout, which included nonpartisan voter registration and civic education opportunities.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Donor-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
- Distribution model
- Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.
The verdict
SUPPORTED - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown and reported officer compensation is a large share of total spending, which may reflect staffing concentration.
