Grants from RDI
Rural Democracy Initiative invests in civic and political infrastructure in rural communities, small cities and towns. Building power in these communities is essential to establishing an enduring progressive, multi-racial national majority, and to implementing the policies required for rural and small town communities to have a vibrant, successful future.
We establish multi-year relationships with grantees. We invest in efforts that have the power to change immediate statewide and local electoral, public opinion and policy outcomes, and at the same time RDI extends our impact by building sustainable infrastructure that will support rural people working to transform rural America – and therefore the entire country – for decades to come.
