Lift Our Voices

What Lift Our Voices does

Lift Our Voices is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit advocacy organization founded in 2019 by Gretchen Carlson and Julie Roginsky, both former Fox News employees who experienced workplace sexual harassment. The organization is structured as a fiscally sponsored project of Panorama Global and operates from Seattle, Washington with 1–10 employees. Its mission is to eradicate workplace silencing mechanisms — specifically forced arbitration clauses and non-disclosure agreements — that prevent workers from speaking about harassment, discrimination, and toxic workplace conditions.

The organization's core offerings include the LOV Where You Work AI Tool (a free consumer-facing AI tool that analyzes employment agreements and surfaces rights workers may be waiving), the LOV Where You Work Index (a corporate transparency scorecard rating Russell 3000 companies on their use of forced arbitration and NDAs), and the supporting LOV Where You Work Survey. Adjacent resources include a twelve-point survivor plan, state-by-state legal aid referrals covering all 50 U.S. states, a state NDA law tracker, and research publications developed with academic partners including UC Davis School of Law and the Stanford Clayman Institute.

Lift Our Voices is funded entirely through donations and grants from individuals, foundations, and corporate sponsors. Visible supporters include the Ford Foundation, Pivotal Ventures, Mark Cuban Foundation, Craig Newmark Philanthropies, Phillips Foundation, The David and Lura Lovell Foundation, Wigor LLP, and corporate sponsors Lyft, Uber, and UPS. Donations are accepted via credit card, bank transfer, PayPal, Venmo, stock, and Donor Advised Funds, with all contributions tax-deductible through Panorama Global (EIN 81-4204119). All advocacy, legal, research, and AI tool services are provided free of charge to the public.
