Election Trust Initiative

The Election Trust Initiative works to strengthen the field of election administration and is guided by the principle that America’s election systems must be secure, transparent, accurate, and convenient. The initiative supports a broad community of election administrators, researchers, policymakers, and organizations working to highlight challenges and successes, and to bring evidence-based solutions to scale.

The Election Performance Project is a collaborative fund managed by the Pew Charitable Trusts to support a resilient election system that is accessible, secure, and trustworthy. The project’s grantmaking will support a strong, well-funded U.S. elections system in which elections are run in a nonpartisan manner and every eligible voter can register and cast their vote with minimal administrative burden.
