Our North Star

Support for Utah

UDC donors are serious about political transformation in our quickly changing state. Whether your passion is protecting our natural environment or our children’s education, your donation has a foundational impact on your neighborhood and the state as a whole.

A Community of Donors

By giving with a group of like-minded people, your investment is multiplied and has long-term impact. Whether you give anonymously or are a vocal champion, you’re joining an engaged and driven community of funders who take pride in their contributions.

Informed
Impact

As a member, you have access to regular briefings, virtual and in-person events, and ongoing analysis of lessons learned and effective tactics. You can pick and choose education opportunities to stay informed and updated.

Turnkey Transformation

Your donation to UDC supports state-wide impact, simplifying your giving while maximizing your gift. UDC applies a strategic, long-term lens to our investments and collaborates directly with organizations working to create a healthy and just Utah.

Local Impact, National Movement

Our donors are a part of a nationwide coalition. We model our work on successes in other states such as Colorado, Georgia, New Mexico, and Michigan. Our donors fund proven strategies here in Utah that have been the catalyst for critical policy victories and wins at the ballot box nationwide.

Coordinated Change

We create, nurture, and sustain the groups and programs that promote our common values and elect people who champion those values. We pool values-aligned donations and distribute them where they are most needed to transform politics in Utah.

Long-Term Focus, Durable Results

UDC funds and builds the needed political infrastructure, creating a sustainable civic ecosystem in Utah. These meaningful investments support election protection and voter education to generate policy solutions that improve the lives of every Utah resident.
