Overview
Mission
Kidsvoting tampa bay is formed to increase voter turnout and create a better informed electorate. It is a nonpartisan organization that engages students and families in voting and other civic activities. Kidsvoting tampa bay encompasses all economic social classes. School districts throughout five neighboring counties are offered the program, including private, secondary and home schooled students. Students in grades k-12 are given curriculum lessons regarding voting. On election day, accompanied by their parent or guardian, students cast a ballot in their neighborhood precinct polling location. The program intends to implement the project every two years in general, statewide and national elections. Kidsvoting tampa bay provides the curriculum and instruction to the school districts; ballot production and distribution to all polling locations, volunteers, board members, precinct workers, ballot tabulation, and works with the media while providing administration of the program.

What it reported doing in 2009
Due to the enormous success of its inaugural year in 2004, the kids voting tampa bay founding partners/board members unanimously supported the expansion throughout the tampa bay community to include pasco, pinellas, hernando, citrus, and hillsborough counties. In 2010 more than 105,800 students cast a kids voting ballot in tampa bay. Partnerships with the supervisors of elections and superintendents of schools were created to accomplish the mission of kids voting tampa bay's expansion. Paper copies, cd format and downloadable versions of our curriculum have been supplied to each of the five counties public, home and private schools to enhance education of our electoral process and instill civic responsibility of our community's youth. From october 25, 2010 - november 2, 2010, students participated in the kids voting tampa bay mock election using doubleclick democracy, an online voting system. Each student received their own voter id to log-in and cast their vote. Students take part in a voting experience using a ballot that mirrors the adult ballot with the same candidates and issues and receive their very own "i voted" sticker. At the closing of the polls, kvtb tabulates each county's ballots and announces the final results to media, teachers, and posts the results on the kvtb website.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Cannot be determined from the filing. The filing does not provide enough consistent revenue detail to tell how this nonprofit funds its work.
- 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 - The filed numbers largely add up. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and a relatively small share of total spending goes to programs.
