Overview

Mission

The vote to live foundation registers, educates, and engages black voters by building lasting civic infrastructure through digital and field outreach, community-based partnerships, and culturally relevant voter education campaigns. Our work maximizes black voter influence and participation across underserved communities nationwide, advancing a more equitable and inclusive democracy through sustainable, community-driven civic engagement.

What it reported doing in 2024

The vote to live foundation was in its first year and was ramping up to deploy sophisticated digital and field infrastructure to register, educate, and engage black voters at scale, leveraging partnerships with vote.org, hbcus, historically black fraternities and sororities, and faith-based communities to reach voters where they are. Our voter education campaigns pair multimedia voter guides and culturally relevant content with trusted messenger videos to demystify new voting laws and id requirements in battleground states, maximizing black voter influence and power to create sustainable change nationwide.
