    Open Philanthropy recommended three grants totaling $950,000 over two years to Voters Organized to Educate (“Voters Organized”) for general support. Voters Organized intends to use this funding to hire an organizing director and continue its work to reduce incarceration in Louisiana.

    This follows our February 2018 support and falls within our focus area of criminal justice reform.
