Voteworks,
Businesses Promote the Vote was a project of
National Voice,
a Tides Center Project. Voteworks is a 501c3 non-partisan
initiative whose mission is to engage small and large businesses
to maximize public participation in our nation's democratic
process by getting people registered and to the polls.
In 2004, Voteworks also partnered with National Voice's "November
2" project, a national non-partisan media campaign
working with hundreds of non-partisan groups
and socially responsible businesses to co-brand "November
2" and promote a unified focus on voter engagement.
Voteworks also partnered with key organizations
that provide the necessary tools for businesses to successfully
launch a voter engagement program. For more information
check out our Partner
Initiatives.
Our team is led by Suzanne Biegel, a business owner
who won Entrepreneur of the Year and Woman of the Year
in Los Angeles for the work of her socially responsible
and innovative training and communications firm. She
is now a partner in the firm MusicMatters. The project
also had extensive participation by Mark Ritchie, Executive
Director of National Voice coalition; Working Assets,
providing Your Vote Matters online voter registration capability;
the state PIRGs' New Voters Project; dozens of members of Social Venture
Network, and a host of volunteers donating their time.
