Overview

Mission

Educate citizens in Georgia on the concept and advantages of Ranked Choice Voting.

What it reported doing in 2024

Educate and support volunteers and other interested people about ranked choice voting how to use it how it would work in Georgia and similar topics. Includes volunteer training onboarding and support supporting chapter leads creating training resources and other tasks to support educate and train volunteers and others interested in potentially using ranked choice voting.

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

STRONG - The filed numbers largely add up and a large share of available resources goes toward mission work. 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.
