Building Progressive Power
Founded in 2016, the Michigan Donor Alliance brings together thoughtful and engaged donors committed to strengthening democracy, expanding opportunity, and building long-term progressive strength.
Our members believe lasting progress is built when we align our values, vision, and resources with data-informed strategy.
Strengthening Democracy Together in Michigan
What is a donor alliance?
A donor alliance is a like-minded community of people who want their giving to have a greater impact than it could have alone. It’s a network for those who are ready to drive meaningful change, explore innovative ideas, and connect with others who share a commitment to making a difference.
If the giving landscape feels overwhelming, a donor alliance can provide trusted guidance to help you direct your resources where they matter most.
What Does the Michigan Donor Alliance Do?
Pool Resources for Greater Impact
We combine contributions from our members, so each dollar goes further to accelerate progress, and ensure investments drive measurable change.
Fund High-Impact Causes
We support organizations that change communities, and projects that no group could house alone.

We identify gaps in the democratic ecosystem and support solutions that advance proven approaches.
Invest in Innovation for Democracy
We support cutting-edge initiatives that strengthen communities, expand participation, and protect the democratic process.
Strengthen Civic Engagement
