Georgia Muslim Voter Project

What Georgia Muslim Voter Project does

Georgia Muslim Voter Project (GAMVP) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit civic engagement organization founded in 2016 and headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia, with a statewide operating footprint. The organization is dedicated to elevating Muslim civic participation in Georgia through voter registration, civic education, legislative advocacy, and community organizing. GAMVP engages community members through field organizers conducting door-to-door canvassing, on-site voter registration drives at 50+ partner mosques across Georgia, college campus outreach, and an Event Request Program that delivers voter registration, redistricting and census education, community conversations, candidate forums, and Prayers to the Polls events.

GAMVP's core programmatic offerings include the Youth Ambassador Program (ages 16-22) with monthly trainings and a $1,000 completion stipend, the Ummah Forward membership and leadership development program, an annual Georgia Muslim Advocacy Day at the State Capitol (most recently co-organized with CAIR-GA and IMAN Atlanta in 2023, drawing 150+ participants), redistricting education and postcard advocacy, and a Policy Insights platform that tracks Georgia voting-rights legislation including bills such as SB3EX. Operational tools include an online voter registration portal linked to Go Vote Georgia, a Ballot Lookup Tool powered by third-party vendor Branch Politics, SMS-based voter communications, and standard digital channels (website, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, YouTube, email newsletter) for outreach.

As a nonpartisan civic engagement nonprofit, GAMVP does not sell products or services; its revenue model is donation- and grant-based, with individual contributions accepted through the ActBlue platform and at least one confirmed foundation grant (the SOLVE Southern Movement Grant from the Southern Coalition for Social Justice in 2021). With approximately 15 staff and a cumulative impact of 100,000+ people engaged and 3,000+ voters registered, GAMVP functions as a community-led organizing hub rather than a technology or product company.

Direct peers

• MPower Change: National Muslim American civic engagement organization focused on voter mobilization, policy advocacy, and base-building in Muslim communities. Comparable mission to GAMVP at a national scale, with overlapping programmatic pillars around registration, GOTV, and advocacy.
• New Georgia Project: Georgia-based civic engagement nonprofit focused on registering and mobilizing underrepresented voters, particularly voters of color. Operates in the same state with a comparable voter registration and turnout mission, though serving a broader demographic.
• Emgage: Muslim American civic and policy engagement organization running voter registration, GOTV, and legislative advocacy. Emgage operates in multiple states and overlaps directly with GAMVP's integrated voter engagement approach.
• Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR): National Muslim civil rights and advocacy organization with a Georgia chapter (CAIR-GA) that GAMVP directly partners with on Georgia Muslim Advocacy Day. Both groups mobilize Muslim civic engagement, voter participation, and legislative advocacy in overlapping constituencies.
• Inner-City Muslim Action Network (IMAN): Chicago-based Muslim organizing group with an Atlanta chapter (IMAN Atlanta) that GAMVP co-organized Georgia Muslim Advocacy Day with. IMAN runs community organizing, civic engagement, and advocacy programming in Muslim communities, directly overlapping with GAMVP's mission.

Regional players

• National Council of Jewish Women: Faith-based civic engagement organization running voter mobilization, civic education, and advocacy for Jewish communities. Comparable faith-community-focused civic engagement model, though operating nationally and in a different faith demographic.

Broad incumbents

• NAACP: National civil rights organization with voter registration, civic engagement, and advocacy programs targeting African American communities. Operates at much larger scale and broader demographic scope, but uses comparable integrated voter engagement tactics.
• Faith in Action: Large national faith-based civic engagement network running voter registration, turnout, and advocacy campaigns through faith communities. Operates at much larger scale but uses a comparable community-led, congregation-based outreach model that parallels GAMVP's mosque-based distribution.

Emerging players

• Voto Latino: National Latino civic engagement organization running voter registration, civic education, and advocacy for young Latinos. Uses a similar integrated voter engagement model targeting a specific ethnic/faith-based community, making its operating playbook highly comparable to GAMVP's.
• Asian Americans Advancing Justice: Asian American civic engagement and advocacy organization with voter mobilization programs. Targets Asian American communities — many of whom are first-generation and face similar language and civic-education barriers to GAMVP's immigrant Muslim voters.
