Immigrant Power Fund

Immigrant Power FundDonate now

The easiest way to donate to local immigrant justice organizations both fighting for immigrant justice year-round and leading campaigns to get voters out to the polls.

Curated by long-time immigrant rights organizers Erika Andiola and Myrna Orozco, who have many years of experience in local and national immigrant rights struggles. They have consulted with dozens of local and national organizers in developing this list, with a focus on MVP’s priority states.

Build long-term infrastructure that lasts beyond the next election. We fund organizations and local leaders that are in their communities year-round, not one-off campaigns that come and go each cycle.

All contributions are re-granted to groups. The size and frequency of grants for each group are regularly assessed by MVP’s grant-making team and state advisors based on where additional funding is most needed. For more information or to discuss a customized giving plan, please email advisor@movement.vote.

This fund is administered by Movement Voter Project, a 501(c)(4) nonprofit. Donations are not tax-deductible.
