Overview
Mission
The purpose of our organization is to ensure communities understand the power and importance of their vote. Our target audiences are underserved communities of people who have never or rarely voted, and those who are justice-impacted. We help individuals take advantage of the opportunity to allow their voices to be heard through civic engagement. We Must Vote Action Fund has an emphasis on African-Americans in rural communities, who have limited access to resources, therefore limiting their ability to access pertinent information in a timely manner.
What it reported doing in 2025
We Must Vote Action Fund has lobbied at the State Capital for the restoring of rights to persons re-entering society after being incarcerated and serving their prescribed time, as well as for those who were falsely imprisoned and later released after evidence proved they were not guilty. We also provided training in rural areas about justice and rights restoration, as well as general reasons and the importance of votijng to youth and those living in rural communities.
