01What it does

What The League of Women Voters of Texas does

Mission

Empower voters and defend democracy in Texas. Provide support to local Leagues and support the development of new local chapters.

As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.

Program

  1. Nonpartisan Community Education for Texas Voters: Voters turn to the League for unbiased, nonpartisan election information ahead of every election. Information on election processes and what will be on the ballot are easily accessible with printed Voters Guides at local libraries as well as on VOTE411.org and the League website online. We translate the Voters Guide into Spanish, Simplified Chinese, and Vietnamese to ensure new citizens can read it on VOTE411.org in the language they are most comfortable with. We use cutting-edge technology to reach voters across Texas. Voters still find the Voters Guide in print in libraries and community centers; it is also easily viewed by phone, tablet, or computer on LWVTexas.org and at VOTE411.org. We promote voting and elections with QR codes, text reminders, and on social media with videos and graphics. During the 2023 Constitutional Amendment Elections, our explainer videos were viewed more than one million times. In 2024, we distributed more than 175,000 printed Voters' Guides, and the Guides were accessed over 940,000 times on VOTE411. Leveraging a grant, we collaborated with Leagues in the Houston area to deliver more than 800,000…

Each line starts at 100 in 2019, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2019, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended.

03Who funds it

Who funds it, year by year

2021 → 2023: the base narrowed from 3 funders to 2 funders, grant income fell $19k → $16k.

4 of 5 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 89% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.

Left out of every figure on this page: $374k from one payer (the payer shares this organization's board, largest The League of Women Voters of Texas Education Fund). These are real filings, and they are not money The League of Women Voters of Texas raised.

From the IRS filings of The League of Women Voters of Texas’s funders (the co-funder graph). 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

The League of Women Voters of Texas leans on a few funders — its largest provides 48% of grant income and the top three 83%; half comes from just 2 funders.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 2 funders to its left

100% 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 The League of Women Voters of Texas.

Largest funder’s share by year: 2021 35% · 2022 53% · 2023 61% — growing more concentrated.

“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.

Where its funders are

89% of The League of Women Voters of Texas's grant income arrives through donor-advised or pass-through sponsors, whose addresses record where the money is held rather than where the donor is. Of the $10k that is directly attributable, 100% of it comes from Texas funders.

TX

Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $85k arriving through sponsors registered in 4 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.
