Latinos are the largest minority group and the fastest growing demographic in the United States.

The organization provides culturally relevant resources across its digital platforms, reaching more than 22 million viewers a month on a broad range of issue areas. In 2020, it registered 600,000 voters. With Corporation support, the Voto Latino Foundation will continue to register, educate, and mobilize Latino voters around the 2024 elections to maximize civic participation.
