  • Tax-deductible 501(c)(3) organizations are not permitted to support or oppose any candidates. They may, however, engage in and support nonpartisan programs to encourage people to register and to vote, to help them understand the importance of voting, making a plan to vote, and how to engage in their communities. These efforts are all strictly nonpartisan and may be focused on historically underrepresented voters. Contributions are tax-deductible.

    501(c)(4) and (5) organizations, on the other hand, may engage in unlimited lobbying, including supporting and opposing ballot measures, and even support or oppose candidates. Donations to these entities are not tax-deductible.

  • For most organizations, non-tax deductible dollars are harder to raise because foundations and DAFs cannot give to them. So for donors to whom a tax deduction isn’t especially valuable, we recommend giving non-tax deductible funds.

    For many, however, a deduction can be valuable. If giving to a tax-deductible 501(c)(3) allows you to give at least 30% more than you otherwise could, then we recommend you do so.

    There will be circumstances where non-tax-deductible funds are especially needed and in those cases, we will let you know that.

  • Focus for Democracy has strict evaluation criteria for the programs it recommends. We limit our support to programs that have evidence of impact and that focus their work on key races in presidential battleground states. 

    If your program has evidence of impact supported by randomized controlled trials, we’d be happy to pass your information along to our evaluation team. Please email team@focus4democracy.org.  

    Thank you.
