Welcome to
50CAN Action Fund
50CAN Action Fund is a 501c(4) organization committed to supporting elected officials that share our vision of an equitable education system. We strive to support leaders who are committed to putting kids at the center of all the public education decisions we make in our communities and states. We are steadfast in our belief that students deserve better, and we are relentless in our pursuit of the educational systems and policies they deserve.
Who we are
At 50CAN Action Fund, we are passionate about helping local advocates participate in the local democratic process by making their voices heard to get policy wins that help kids and by supporting candidates who put kids first.
We know this electoral work is a critical component of a successful advocacy campaign: according to AdvocacyLabs, campaigns that engage in electoral work win 65% of the time in their legislative campaigns, compared to just 44% for campaigns that don’t.
