StateDemocracy Network Information

In 2003, after some 3 years of investment and hard work, V-Empower incorporated the Statedemocracy.org Foundation as a 501(c)3 non-profit, dedicated to continually improving the ability of citizens to connect with their elected officials. Over its history, the dedicated people behind StateDemocracy.org are proud to have helped some 114,000 citizens participate in their democracy, with over $300,000 contributed by V-Empower to the Statedemocracy.org Foundation to make Shukoor's civic dream a powerful democratic reality! In 2008, as candidates focus ever-increasing expenditures to get elected, it seems there is ever-fewer resources dedicated to facilitating democratic participation by our citizenry. But StateDemocracy.org continues to improve its civic engagement tools. The revamped website now offers more than just a connection between citizens and their lawmakers. Users now have tools allowing them to access voter registration and absentee ballots, as well as to locate their polling place. In 2007 alone, V-Empower contributed over $ 90,000 to revamp and expand the features offered by www.StateDemocracy.org as a public service to America's voters. An effort is underway to strengthen the StateDemocracy.org Foundation Board of Directors with new blood, while also seeking sponsorships from corporations and benefactors. We closed State Democracy Foundation in December 2010 both the web application and legal non-profit entity. We would love to share our technical know-how, source code and our experience with those who are interested and they could contact shukoor at v-empower.com. Sponsors & Strategic Partners:
