Title
NAACP National Voter Fund
Description
In 2000, the NAACP initiated a separate Section 501(c)(4) organization, the NAACP National Voter Fund (NVF). NVF's mission is to engage in issue advocacy, educate voters on candidates' stands on civil rights, and increase voter turnout in the African American community through voter education and non-partisan registration and get-out-the-vote efforts. In 2000, NVF led a nationwide effort resulting in an historic increase in African American voter participation, despite well-documented cases of unfair purges and barriers.
NVF subsequently created Americans for Equality (AFE), a Section 527 political organization. AFE supplements NVF efforts in support of civil rights, voting rights and other issues of importance to African-American voters. AFE activities include non-partisan get-out-the-vote programs, research on incumbents and candidates, issue advocacy, and grassroots lobbying.
