To develop a free, fair, and accessible election system, our Elections and Voting program supports groups who are empowering communities and strengthening our election infrastructure. 864089 500000 Vibrant and Diverse Public SquareReliable information is getting harder to find, leading to less informed voters and greater threats to democracy. To increase civic participation, the Public Square program invests in organizations and leaders who believe in the power of accurate and accessible information as a force for justice and democracy, and work to ensure communities have access to the information they need, online and offline. 6880188 6443041 Representative and Accountable GovernanceGoverning institutions should provide equal voice and power to all Americans, leaders should be accountable and responsive, and abuses of power should be rare. Achieving this vision requires reforming our institutions so that voters see themselves and their opinions represented in government and its policy decisions. The Governance program seeks to defend against threats that undermine our democracy and works to advance long-term, structural change that shifts power to the people and away from a select few.

Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 8b Currently there are no separate committees with authority to act on behalf of the governing body. Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 11b The process followed for review of the Form 990 is to distribute it to the Board of Directors for independent review by the Board Members for review, discussion, and comment. Any questions that arise are discussed and addressed by the Members of the Board of Directors. Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 12c Democracy Fund Voice, Inc. monitored and enforced its conflict of interest policy by gathering from its directors and officers disclosure of conflicts of interest. The policy outlines a process to be undertaken if there is a potential violation of the policy. Form 990, Part VI, Section C, line 19 Democracy Fund Voice, Inc. places a high value on ethics and transparency. Our Forms 990, other governing documents and conflict of interest policy are available upon request. Form 990 Part VII This note explains the relationship between DFV and DF and how that relationship is reflected in DFV's responses to questions in Part VII. As explained in Democracy Fund Voice's Form 1024, Democracy Fund Voice and Democracy Fund are parties to a cost-sharing agreement, under which Democracy Fund charges Democracy Fund Voice for its proportionate share of office space, employee services, and administrative expenses. DFV and DFI, however, are not "related organizations" under the Form 990 definition of that term. Therefore, this Form 990 does not include Schedule R, where related organizations are required to disclose information about shared costs and services. In the interest of clarity and transparency, in Part VII, DFV reports the total amount of compensation paid to the listed individuals, and DFV reimburses DF for its proportionate share of that amount, per the cost-sharing agreement.
