GRANTEES

PUBLIC OPINION SURVEY RESEARCH

Public opinion survey research is at the center of learning the views, priorities, ambitions and concerns of a community, district, state and nation. Funding is provided for national, state, and local public opinion research. Project examples include: opinion, messaging, benchmark, brushfire, entrance, exit, tracking, and straw polls.

ADVOCACY

The second pillar is conservative citizens being fully engaged in the civic arena. Funding is provided for national, state, and local public opinion activism. Project examples include: leadership development; non-partisan voter registration drives; informing conservatives on voting processes; and reminding conservatives to vote on the issues that impact all Americans’ lives both now and for generations to come.

SEMINARS & SYMPOSIUMS

Elected officials, newsmakers, policy experts, and influencers sharing ideas and listening to others are paramount to advancing conservatism and pointing out the harmful effects of progressivism. Capitalizing on solutions and addressing solutions require thoughtful discussion. Funding is provided for national, state, and local seminars and symposiums. Project examples include: live and streaming public events; live and recorded candidate forums; and streaming and video archived panel discussions. The American Excellence Foundation will partner with organizations to create educational events and assist in putting on seminars.
