The Voter Network

What The Voter Network does

The Voter Network is a 501(c)(3) nonpartisan nonprofit founded in 2018 and headquartered in Overland Park, Kansas. It is dedicated to increasing voter participation in Kansas elections through voter education, ballot research tools, and a relational organizing program. The organization serves all eligible Kansas voters as its primary customer segment, with secondary outreach to high school students (via a registration program in partnership with The Civics Center) and historically underrepresented voters including trans/nonbinary individuals, formerly incarcerated people, and Safe at Home participants. Services are provided free of charge and the organization is funded through individual donations, offering both monthly sustaining memberships and one-time gifts.

The product portfolio is structured around civic engagement rather than a traditional software stack. Core offerings include Voter to Voter (a relational organizing program in which volunteer ambassadors commit to helping ten people in their personal network vote, supported by scripts, data tools, and tracking), KSBallot.org (a Kansas-specific ballot research tool integrating candidate information and polling locations), a High School Voter Registration Program with county-level registration data, a downloadable Volunteer Toolkit (Voting By Mail FAQ, College Voting Guide, Election Calendar, engagement templates), and a Know Your Rights resource page. The underlying technology is described as a relational organizing platform with data tools for identifying infrequent voters within personal networks; there is no public-facing app, no documented API or SDK, and no AI/ML components.

The business model is a donation-funded nonprofit. Revenue mechanics consist of recurring monthly sustainer gifts and one-time contributions, with the donor page explicitly referencing the funding of voter outreach, ambassador training, and bilingual resources. The go-to-market motion is community-led and field-driven: the Voter to Voter Ambassador program functions as the primary distribution and persuasion mechanism, supplemented by digital channels (the organization's WordPress website, KSBallot.org, email newsletter, and social media toolkits) and direct partnerships with civic organizations. The organization does not sell products or services, does not disclose revenue, and has no recorded funding rounds, M&A activity, or institutional investors in the source material.
