Programs
Voter Education: GAMVP hosted 26 education programs with community groups, schools, and masjids highlighting the importance of being informed about both upcoming elections and relevant changes in election laws. Some of our standardized educational offerings included: Building Muslim Power: Our Impact on Local Elections, Know Your Ballot: 2023 Local Elections, Georgias Government and You: Understanding Your Role Within It, and Intro to Civic Engagement and Engaging with our Elected Officials, and Know the Facts: Fighting Misinformation and Disinformation. We also launched our second cohort of our six month Youth Ambassador Program with 18 Youth Ambassadors. This program aims to inspire future generations of Georgia Muslims to confidently engage in the civic process and pursue leadership opportunities through monthly civic training and education workshops, along with active learning assignments.

We hosted three larger scale voter registration drives, the largest being National Muslim Voter Registration Day (NMVRD), where we registered community members at masjids across the metro-Atlanta area.
$18,488 spentof which $18,488 as grants21% of program spendingVoter Engagement: To mobilize our communities during local election season in November, GAMVP hosted Prayers to the Polls events, phone banked, text banked, door knocked, and collected voter pledges. GAMVP had over 500 phone conversations and sent out over 100,000 texts. GAMVP also partnered with a 501(c)3 tech startup, Branch Politics, to provide a non-partisan ballot lookup tool to voters across the state. A voter could enter their address which would pull up a sample ballot and guide to all the election officials. Voters could read about and compare candidates across several issues, save their choices, and print them out to bring with them to the ballot box on Election Day. Thousands of community members have used our ballot tool to research candidates and build their ballots prior to voting.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2021 to 2022, from $844k to $1.3M (+59%).
How it's funded, over time
Each bar is one year's revenue split into where it came from, and every bar is the same height — these are shares, not amounts, so a year that raised twice as much looks the same size. Hover a bar for the split.
100% of Georgia Muslim Voter Project’s revenue is contributions — more reliant on donations than three-quarters of its peers (97% for the typical peer).

Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 2 funders to 15 funders, grant income rose $65k → $1.4M.
14 of 35 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 47% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.
From the IRS filings of Georgia Muslim Voter Project’s funders (the co-funder graph). Top 30 of 35 funders by total. Association, not causation. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
How concentrated its funding is
Georgia Muslim Voter Project has a broad base — no single funder exceeds 16% of grant income, and it takes 5 funders to reach half.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 5 funders to its left
91% of the income these shares are computed over arrives through pass-through sponsors or from payers whose filings do not say what kind of payment it is. Concentration is still measured over all of it, because the money is real; what it does not support is a claim about how many institutions have chosen to fund Georgia Muslim Voter Project.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 92% · 2018 71% · 2019 58% · 2020 35% · 2021 39% · 2022 20% · 2023 25% — diversifying over time.
“Effective funders” = inverse Herfindahl index (1 / Σ shareᵢ²) — the number of equal-sized funders that would give the same concentration. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
How long its funders stay
67% of Georgia Muslim Voter Project's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 46% give in more than one year at all.
Share of funders still giving k years after their first recorded grant, pooled across every acquisition cohort. A funder counts as retained in a year only if it made a grant that year. Measured to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving — a funder cannot be counted as lapsed in a year most filers have not reached.
Where its funders are
Georgia Muslim Voter Project draws 57% of its grant income from funders outside Georgia, across 9 states in all.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $2.4M arriving through sponsors registered in 9 states is excluded from the map and the split above: a sponsor holds money on a donor’s behalf, so its registered address would place those dollars somewhere no donor need ever have been. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
