Mission & Focus Areas

AVL’s stated mission is to fight voter suppression and open pathways to registration and voting for eligible voters; safeguard elections by pushing back against officials and policies that undermine election results or voter access; and amplify the engagement of communities most affected by voter suppression and election-related efforts to undermine democracy. Its website highlights Black, Brown, Native American, and other historically marginalized communities.

The 2024 filing says AVL engages with national, state, and local organizations and considers qualified entities for grants. The grantees’ stated missions illustrate the kinds of work represented in its giving. Common Cause Education Fund says it uses research, outreach, education, and coalition building to promote public understanding and civic engagement. Progress Now Arizona Institute says it provides training, coaching, and support to nonpartisan Arizona organizations rooted in communities of color. One Arizona says its mission is to increase civic participation among Arizonans. Other listed grantees describe work in voting rights and civic education, voter-rights advocacy, community capacity building, faith-based public engagement, and advancing democracy through law.
