What it says it does

It is our mission to educate and inform people of faith about voting and participation. Our goal is to inform voters about the candidates of faith who are on the ballot. Our metric of success will be to increase voter participation by people of faith. Some estimates place that only 52% of Evangelical Christians voted in 2020, compared to 67% of elections. Elected officials by nature focus on those who vote.
