With research and experience-born advice, the Partnership matches the values and interests of its clients with a set of leaders, initiatives and organizations and produces a personalized, cohesive, long-term program of philanthropic investment that yields social and political change over time. On behalf our clients, the Partnership for Democracy and Education has launched or fostered development of MARIA'S LIST, WOMEN'S PIPELINE FOR CHANGE, and PROGRESSIVE MASSACHUSETTS FUNDER COLLABORATIVE.

MARIA'S LIST identifies and recommends progressive candidates for office at the federal and state levels, based on research provided by the Partnership.

WOMEN'S PIPELINE FOR CHANGE is an effort undertaken by women of color from low income communities and their allies to remove and overcome barriers to their full participation in the civic life of their communities as advocates, voters, policy makers and political activists.

PROGRESSIVE MASSACHUSETTS FUNDER COLLABORATIVE is a statewide alliance of donors who seek to support development of progressive infrastructure in the Commonwealth.

Projects, initiatives and organizations that receive funding from Partnership clients also gain access to technical assistance, drawing on the deep knowledge and strategic expertise of the Partnership team. Partnership research and grantmaking services has resulted in support for candidate development organizations, campaigns for elected office, ballot initiatives and the groundbreaking efforts of organizations that advance the interests of communities traditionally excluded from influential political and policy decision making.
