Vote With Your Purse is a nationally acclaimed research project of the Women’s Campaign Forum Foundation. We work toward the day when women understand that electoral contributions are a critical part of political participation and achieving political power – and give accordingly. Vote With Your Purse aims to grow women’s political giving so that their political will is fully reflected.

Women are already active users of new Web 2.0 tools, or social media. WCF Foundation has created the Vote With Your Purse resource center to ensure Web 2.0 tools are used to their full potential to engage women politically online. Campaigns and organizations that are ready to build their Web 2.0 presence will reach women more easily, more effectively and in more compelling ways - and mobilize them to give.

This resource center gives you access to our original 2007 research on women and political giving and our 2008 Research Report on online women donors. We also profile the 10 Web 2.0 tools that we believe are the most important for network building and fundraising from women online. Click on any of the tools listed to learn more!

Check out our September 22, 2008 webinar, ”Opening Women’s Wallets Online” which WCF Foundation co-hosted with Campaigns & Elections Politics Magazine and featured the following speakers: Celinda Lake, Tracy Russo and Mindy Finn.
