Our August grantees thank you for your support
Each month, CREDO members vote on how we distribute funding to three incredible nonprofits. Those small actions add up – with one click, you can help fund groups fighting for civil rights, climate justice, peace and more. In August, we increased our monthly donations to $250,000 to help fund three organizations — Black Voters Matter, Democracy for America and Vote.org — that are playing key roles in this year’s election efforts as part of CREDO Votes 2020, a new voter information project with resources to help you take action and make a greater impact this election.
These donations are made possible by CREDO customers and the revenue they generate by using our services. The distribution depends entirely on the votes of CREDO members like you. And for that, our August grant recipients thank you.
